Look, I’m not good at cooking many things, but I thought I would show you all my current specialty, which is MEXICAN PIE. This one looks EXACTLY LIKE THE BOOK. How often does that happen, seriously. It is a pretty amazing dish if you eat meat, and if you like tacos, but don’t like lettuce or how messy tacos are, because it smells like tacos when it’s cooking, which is A++. Here is a general recipe:
YOU WILL NEED:
• 2 carrots (chopped small)
• an onion (again chopped small)
• 2 cloves of garlic (crushed with crusher or otherwise)
• minced beef, some.
• 1 can chopped tomatoes
• 1 can red kidney beans (rinse the shit out of them, they are hells nasty otherwise)
• chilli, to taste (fresh or from a tube like I use because it saves you dangerous chopping)
• corn chips, half a bag usually works for me
• CHEESE. LOTS OF CHEESE.
So. Heat some oil in a frypan, cook the onion, carrot and garlic until it’s sort of translucent and y’know, cooked, then add the mince and the chilli and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon/spatula as you go, then add the tomatoes and kidney beans and cook for a tiny bit more, so it’s all amalgamated and stuff, then pour it into an ovenproof, slightly greased casserole dish and cover with the corn chips (sort of stick them in the top, overlapping a bit? The picture is what it should look like at the end) and then cover THAT with cheese, then heat in a 200ºC oven (apparently 392ºF) for about 30 minutes until crunchy on top, then sprinkle with paprika and some parsley (I GREW MINE, THANKS) and you can totally eat that mofo. I think sour cream would also be a delicious addition, but I am yet to try that.
