Add kidney beans, mix well and mash the beans lightly with the back of the spoon. Add ¼ cup water and mix well. Add crushed black peppercorns and mix till well combined. Take the pan off the heat. For the cheese sauce, heat butter in another non-stick pan and let it melt. Add refined flour, mix and sauté taking care that its colour does not change. Add milk and mix well so that no lumps are formed. Tear the cheese slice and add to the sauce. Mix well till the cheese melts and cook till the sauce thickens. Take the pan off the heat. To make the salsa, put tomatoes in a bowl, add onion, green chilli, lemon juice, coriander leaves and tomato juice and mix well. Add salt and mix well. To make the nachos, heat sufficient oil in a deep pan. Grease the worktop with a little oil. Take a portion of the dough, shape it into a ball and flatten it slightly. Place the dough on the greased worktop and roll it into a thin sheet. Trim the sides and cut them into equal strips. Prick all over with a fork and cut into triangles with a pizza cutter. Slide these triangles into hot oil and deep-fry till golden brown and crisp. Drain on absorbent paper. Sprinkle paprika and salt while the nachos are hot and toss well. To assemble, put the nachos in a serving bowl. Top them with dried beans and salsa and drizzle cheese sauce through a squeezy bottle. Garnish with black olives slices, jalapenos slices and a curly parsley sprig. Serve immediately. #Cornmeal Subscribe to our Newsletter!
