ROAST THE WEDGES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Potato wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 35-40 minutes (shifting halfway).
COOK THE MINCE
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry until browned, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated Garlic, the tomato paste, the Mexican spice (to taste), and fry until fragrant, 2-3 minutes. Add 100ml of water, and simmer until almost reduced and thickening, 4-6 minutes. Remove from the heat, add a sweetener, and season.
CHEESE MELT
When the roast has 8-10 minutes remaining, sprinkle over the grated cheese and continue roasting until the cheese is melted and turning golden.
TIME TO FEAST!
Make a bed of the mince, top with the cheesy wedges, and garnish with a sprinkle of the chopped coriander. Nicely done, Chef!
