Chilli Burrito Tortilla Lasagne
2021-01-23 10:38

OK, the name is a travesty, but it means I can easily find the recipe again. There's no Lasagne pasta in there.

This is a variation of Mary Berry's Mexican Tortilla Bake recipe - essentially making it easier/lazier to make and boosting some ingredients to reduce the amount of meat you need to put in.

If you want to make the chilli from scratch rather than using stir-in sauce, you can follow my Spicy Chilli recipe.

For ease of serving, I only put 2 Tortilla layers in - if you want more you can just adjust the amount of mascarpone/cheese you put on each layer.

You can prepare this a few hours ahead of cooking it if you want, just make sure it's left covered and in a cool area.

Nothing goes together quite like Chilli and cheese, but there are so many different presentations that can be had at the same time. Tacos are quick and easy, and make a change from rolling your own burritos.

You can go all out and make the chilli from scratch, or on a weekday you might prefer to buy some mince and a jar of chilli sauce.

A spicy twist on the traditional favourite. Don't use cheap/poor Vodka, but also don't risk ruining good Vodka, use something mid-range

Spicy Chilli

I like my spicy food to be hot, and this chilli seldom disappoints. Can also be served with grated cheese mixed in, the sauce should be a fiery red when you're done, but be careful as I've permanently stained Tupperware boxes with this stuff!

Spicy Fried Egg Sarnie
2019-05-09 14:44

I'm a fan of fried food in sandwiches, but sometimes a little adjustment can make a classic all the better. You can create a tamer variation by replacing the chilli with basil, but I like my food hot. For a real flameball add some Tabasco sauce as well
