Ingredients

Cheesy Nachos

  • 1 brown onion, finely diced
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1½ tablespoons Mexican spice mix
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 can mild chilli beans
  • 1 can chopped tomatoes
  • ½ cup grated cheese

Guacamole

  • 1 avocado
  • Juice of ½ lemon

To Serve

  • 1 bag corn chips
  • ½ cup sour cream

Steps

  1. Preheat oven grill to high. Prepare vegetables.Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, oven-proof fry-pan on medium heat. Cook onion and carrot for 3–4 minutes, until starting to soften. Add corn and cook a further 1-2 minutes, until vegetables are soft (add a splash of water if vegetables start to stick).
  2. Stir in Mexican spice mix, salt, chilli beans and canned tomatoes and simmer for about 5 minutes, until sauce has thickened slightly. Season to taste. Sprinkle over cheese and place under grill for 1-2 minutes, until cheese has melted.
  3. While sauce simmers, cut avocado in half lengthways and twist halves to separate. Remove stone using a spoon and scoop out flesh. Place flesh into a small bowl, add lemon juice and mash using a fork. Season to taste.
  4. To serve, place a handful of corn chips into each bowl and spoon over cheesy nachos. Top with a dollop of guacamole and sour cream.
