Cooking Steps

1

• Finely chop garlic. • Grate carrot. • Drain sweetcorn.


Custom Recipe: 
If you've added mild chorizo, roughly chop the chorizo.
2

• Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook corn kernels until lightly browned, 5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Set aside. • Return pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add beef mince and carrot and cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until browned, 4-5 minutes. Drain any excess oil from the pan.

TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are "popping" out.


Custom Recipe: 
Cook the chorizo with the onion (remember to reserve a spoonful of onion for the salsa) then continue with the step as above.
3

• SPICY! You may find the spice blend hot! Add less if you're sensitive to heat. Add the butter and Mexican Fiesta spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add diced tomatoes with garlic & onion, the sugar and the salt and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium, then simmer until thickened, 5 minutes.

TIP: Add a splash of water to loosen the filling, if needed.

4

• Preheat the grill to medium-high. Drizzle a baking dish with olive oil. • Lay a mini flour tortilla on a chopping board. Spoon some beef filling down the centre of a tortilla, then roll it up tightly and place, seam side-down, in the baking dish. • Repeat with remaining filling and tortillas, ensuring they fit together snugly. Sprinkle with shredded Cheddar cheese. • Grill enchiladas until cheese is melted and golden and tortillas are warmed through, 8-10 minutes.

5

• Meanwhile, thinly slice spring onion. • Add spring onion and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil to the bowl with the charred corn. • Toss to combine. Season to taste.

6

• Divide Mexican beef enchiladas between plates. • Top with corn salsa and light sour cream to serve. Enjoy!
