Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 100g mature cheddar, grated
  • 50g red leicester, grated
  • 1 tbsp cornflour
  • 300ml whipping cream
  • 1-2 tbsp maple syrup
  • a few drops hot sauce
  • 6 rashers smoked streaky bacon
  • 200g plain tortilla chips
  • 3 spring onions, finely sliced
  • 1 jalapeno chilli , sliced (optional)
  • handful coriander leaves
  • soured cream, to serve

Instruction

  • Stir the cheeses, cornflour, cream and 1 tbsp maple syrup in a saucepan over a low heat. Continue stirring – it may split or look lumpy but will eventually come together. Season with the hot sauce and a little more maple syrup to taste. Keep warm to prevent it setting quickly.
  • Grill the bacon until very crisp, and warm the tortilla chips on the shelf below in the oven. Heap the chips onto a platter and pour over the cheese sauce. Break the bacon into small pieces and sprinkle over, followed by the spring onions, jalapeño (if using) and coriander.
