Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
• Grate carrot.
Little cooks: Grate the carrot, but watch out for your fingers!
• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Cook carrot, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes.
• Add beef mince and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes. Drain oil from the pan.
• Stir in tomato paste, Tex-Mex spice blend, vegetable stock powder and the water.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, 2-3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Place one mini flour tortilla on a lined oven tray. Top the tortilla with some filling, spreading out in an even layer. Sprinkle with some shredded Cheddar cheese.
• Repeat until all the tortillas and filling are used up. (If cooking for 4, build two towers).
• Bake until the top tortilla is golden, 10-12 minutes.
