Cooking Steps

1
  • Preheat your oven (for the tortillas) to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 1cm chunks.
  • Zest half lime (per 2P). Chop into four wedges.
  • Roughly chop the chives.
  • Drain and rinse the kidney beans.

TIP: If you want to avoid turning on the oven you can dry-fry the tortillas in a pan instead.

Cook the Mince
2
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat (without oil).
  • Once the pan is hot, fry the mince until browned, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince.
  • Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper.
Simmer the Sauce
3
  • Add the bell pepper and Mexican spice mix to the pan and fry for 1 min.
  • Mix in the passata, beans and stock.
  • Bring to the boil, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, 7-8 mins. Season to taste with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Once simmered, stir through the chipotle paste.

TIP: Add a splash of water if the sauce becomes too dry.

Warm the Tortillas
4
  • Pop the tortillas into the oven to warm, 1-2 mins.
Make the Zesty Sour Cream
5
  • Add the sour cream and lime zest to a small bowl.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Stir to combine.
Garnish and Serve
6
  • Serve warmed tortillas, Mexican spiced mince, zesty sour cream and chives separately.
  • Allow everyone to assemble their own at the table.
  • Serve with lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.
