Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato into fries, then place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Toss to coat, spread out evenly, then bake for 20 minutes. Remove tray from oven, sprinkle over shredded Cheddar cheese, then bake until melted and golden, a further 5 minutes.
Little cooks: Kids can add the finishing touch by sprinkling the cheese on top.
While the fries are baking, drain sweetcorn (see ingredients). Finely chop garlic. Heat a large frying pan over high heat. When the pan is hot, cook sweetcorn until lightly charred, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl. Roughly chop tomato, salad leaves and herbs. Thinly slice spring onion.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are "popping" out.
In a large bowl, add pork mince, Tex-Mex spice blend, fine breadcrumbs (see ingredients), garlic, the egg and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well to combine. Using damp hands, form heaped spoonfuls of the pork mixture into meatballs, then flatten to make 2cm-thick rissoles and transfer to a plate (4-5 per person).
Little cooks: Join the fun by helping combine the ingredients and shaping the mixture into rissoles!
Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook pork rissoles in batches, until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate.
While the rissoles are cooking, add tomato, salad leaves, herbs and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil to the charred corn. Stir to combine and season.
Little cooks: Take the lead by tossing the salsa!
Divide Tex-Mex pork rissoles, cheesy fries and charred corn salsa between plates. Serve with sour cream and garnish with spring onion.
