Loaded Smokey Beef Nachos

• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat 
with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook celery, carrot 
and sweetcorn, stirring, until tender,  
5-6 minutes. 

• Add beef mince and cook, breaking up with a 
spoon, until browned, 4-5 minutes.
• Add Tex-Mex spice blend and tomato paste and 
cook until fragrant, 1 minute.

• Add the water and chicken-style stock powder 
to the pan and stir to combine.
• Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to low and 
simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. 
Season to taste. 

TIP: Don't simmer it for too long, you want it to be 
nice and saucy! Add a dash more water to loosen the 
mixture if needed. 

• Sprinkle shredded Cheddar cheese over beef 
mixture, then cover with a lid (or foil) and cook 
until cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes.
