Dill Sour Cream Dressing

Other Ingredients

  • 1 large bag lightly salted tortilla chips
  • 200g grated cheddar cheese
  • Jalapenos

Instructions
 

  • Begin by frying the onion and garlic in oil, until starting to brown
  • Add in the tomatoes and stir
  • Put in the spices (besides the sugar) and a splash of water combine and bring to the boil, then turn down to a low heat pop on a lid and simmer for 5 minutes
  • Next, add in the beans and cook for about 10 - 15 minutes or until the beans are soft
  • Slightly mash the beans, but not completely mashed smooth
    Then add in the sugar and lemon taste and season if needed, and your beans are ready.
  • Preheat an oven at 170 degrees Celcius
    On a baking tray place half of your tortilla chips, then the beans and cheese evenly and repeat with the other half of the ingredients and place in the oven for 10 - 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and everything is hot
  • Mix together all of the sour cream dressing ingredients togther
  • Top with all of the sauces and toppings and enjoy

Notes

- Feel free to add or take away any toppings of your choice
- I love using flame-grilled serrano chilles instead of jalapenos
- The bean sauce can be used for two full portions of nachos and can be stored in the fridge
