Ok... so there's not much about this that's "Valentine-y" but it's a huge favourite in my house. When asked what he'd like for a romantic home cooked meal tonight, my boyfriend eagerly answered "taco fries!".
For everyone who asked for the recipe today, here you go:
- 500g 5% fat minced beef
- 1 diced onion
- 1 pepper
- 1 carton of passata
- 1 tbsp Worchester sauce
- 1 rich beef stock pot/cube
- 1 tsp chilli powder
- 0.5 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 1 tbsp Schwartz Chips seasoning
- 0.5 tbsp garlic granules
- 60g grated cheddar/4 slices of cheese
Fry onion and pepper in a large pan with 1 cal spray.
Add mince and cook until brown.
Add passata, spices & stock pot/cube and allow to simmer until sauce reduces slightly.
Taco sauce
- 4 tbsp extra light mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp fat free fromage frais
- 1/4 tsp yellow american mustard
- 1 tsp tomato paste
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp chilli powder
- Fresh black pepper
Place all into a mixing bowl and stir well.
I serve with chips and layer the taco beef on top before sprinkling with cheese and a dollop of taco sauce.
Now go and enjoy!
