Instructions

Get Prepped
1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Cut each tortilla into 8 triangles (use scissors if easier). Place on a large baking tray in a single layer and drizzle with oil. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

b) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Grate the cheeses and thinly slice the green chilli. Drain and rinse the kidney beans in a sieve.

c) Bake the tortilla triangles on the top shelf of your oven until lightly golden brown and crisp, 5-7 mins. TIP: Keep an eye on them to make sure they don't burn.

d) Once crisp, remove from your oven and set aside.

Make the Refried Bean Dip
2

a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, add the chorizo and fry until it starts to brown, 3-4 mins. Transfer the chorizo to a bowl and pop your pan back on medium-high heat.

c) Add the Central American style spice mix, tomato puree and half the garlic to the pan and stir-fry for 1 min, then stir in the water for the beans (see pantry for amount), chicken stock paste and kidney beans.

d) Roughly mash the beans in the pan with a potato masher, then bring to the boil and simmer until thickened, 3-4 mins. Transfer the refried bean dip to a serving bowl and wash out your pan.

Queso Time

d) Serve your chorizo queso and refried bean dips with the crispy tortillas chips for scooping up.

Enjoy!
