METHOD FOR\u00a0LOADED MEXICAN POTATO WEDGES<\/strong><\/h3>\n

POTATO WEDGES<\/h4>\n

Preheat the oven to 200 \u00b0C. Arrange the wedges on a lined baking tray and bake until golden and crisp, approximately 15-20 minutes. Turn the potato wedges halfway through the cooking process. Keep the oven on.<\/p>\n

BEEF MINCE<\/h4>\n

Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and saut\u00e9 for 2 minutes. Stir in the beef mince, garlic and chillies and saut\u00e9 for a further 2 minutes. Add the coriander, origanum, tomato pur\u00e9e and salt and fry, 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

Spoon the mince mixture over the potato wedges and sprinkle the cheese on top. Return it to the oven and allow the cheese to melt for 2-3 minutes.<\/p>\n

SALSA<\/h4>\n

For the salsa, stir everything together and season to taste.<\/p>\n

TO SERVE<\/h4>\n

Drizzle the sour cream over the wedges and top with some of the salsa. Garnish with chopped coriander. Serve the wedges with the remaining sour cream, salsa and lemon wedges on the side.<\/p>\n

Tip<\/strong>: Pour the sour cream into a squeezy bottle to easily drizzle it over the wedges. The sour cream can also just be spooned over the wedges.<\/p>\n
