MMMINCE
Preheat the oven to 200°C (if you'd like to do the alternative method in step 3). 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 onion and Carrot. Fry until golden, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally).
MAKE IT SAUCY
Add the tomato paste and the NOMU rub to the pan. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Mix in 100ml [200ml]|#7DA0D7 of water and the beans. Simmer until the sauce has reduced and is no longer watery, but still coats the mince, 6-8 minutes. Remove from the heat, add a sweetener (to taste), and season.
CHEESY Beef CONES
Cut the tortillas in half, then shape each half into a cone and secure the open side with toothpicks. Fill the cones with the mince, and top with the cheese (do not overfill, otherwise the filling may fall out during frying). Place a pan over medium heat with a knob of butter and a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the cones until golden brown on all sides (turning them gently) and the cheese is melted, 3-5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Alternatively, brush the cones with some oil or melted butter and bake until lightly crispy, 10-15 minutes (shifting halfway).
CREAMY AVO SAUCE
Cut the Avocado in half. Add ½ [1] |#7DA0D7 of the avocado flesh to the blender, along with the sour cream, coriander, lime juice, and a splash of water. Blend until smooth and creamy. Season.
TIME TO DINE
Dish up the crispy cheesy Beef cones (discarding the toothpicks) and side with the creamy Avocado sauce for dipping. Well done, Chef!
