Nachos

Ingredients:

• Tortilla chips
• 3 cups of Four kinds of cheese  –  Cheddar, Mozzarella, Parmesan and Monte Veronese ( all are shredded)
• 2 cups of salsa
• 1 cup of Jalapenos
• 1/2 cup of Pickles
• 1 ripened avocado – mashed
• 1 diced tomato
• 1 diced green pepper
• 1 cup of  shredded cabbage
• 1 cup of milk
• 1 Tablespoon of flour
• 2 tablespoons of melted butter
• salt and pepper to taste
• paprika to taste

Method:

• First, we will create a cheese sauce, so in a pot add the melted butter and the flour and mix well until the flour is golden in color.
• Add the milk to the pot and mix continuously until it comes to a boil then add the salt and pepper as well as the paprika.
• leave to boil for 5 minutes( the sauce gets thick), add 1 cup out of three of the four cheese mix.
• In a tray place your tortilla chips and add the mashed avocado, the tomatoes, the onion, the pepper and the shredded cabbage. ensure all the tortillas are covered.
• Pour the salsa in an even manner and then cover with the 2 cups of four cheese mix.
• Add the jalapenos and the pickles and then add the cheese sauce made.

It doesn’t matter how you layer your ingredients but leave the cheese sauce until the end as it is warm and leads the nachos to get soggy after a while if they are right under.
