Start nachos

Grate 100 g cheese over the nacho mixture, place the lid on and cook a further 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.

Make sweet chilli cream

  1. While the nachos are cooking, combine 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce and ½ cup sour cream in a small bowl. Pick and roughly chop the coriander leaves, discarding the stems.

To serve
