Cooking Instructions and Tips

Roast the Wedges
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel). Put the wedges onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.

Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

Cook the Mince
2

Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).

Once hot, add the beef mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Once the mince has been in the pan for 2 mins, add the diced chorizo and fry until both start to brown, 3-4 mins. Use a spoon to break up the mince as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. 

Simmer your Sauce
3

Once the mince and chorizo are browned, add the Mexican style spice mix (add less if you'd prefer things milder) and garlic to the pan and cook for 2-3 mins.

Add the tomato passata, water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) and beef stock paste. Stir and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat.

Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thick, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Add the Beans
4

Meanwhile, drain and rinse the black beans in a sieve.

Halfway through simmering, stir the beans into the beef and chorizo mixture. 

Cheese Please
5

While the sauce thickens, grate the cheese. 

Finish and Serve
6

When everything's ready, taste and season the beef and chorizo mixture with salt and pepper if needed. 

Share the wedges between your plates, then top with the beef - wedges loaded!

Scatter with the cheese and top with a dollop of soured cream to finish.

Enjoy!
