RECIPE
Start by making the spiced butter. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and lightly fry the cumin and chilli powder till they are giving off a delicious aroma. Pour into a bowl and add the rest of the spiced butter ingredients; mix together and once cool, place in the fridge.
Add 3 tbsp olive oil to a large sauce pan and heat over a high heat until smoking hot. Add the mince and cook until browned. Remove and drain the meat.
Turn the heat down to medium and add the remaining olive oil. Add the onions and cook until the onions begin to colour, then add the garlic and green chilli and cook for another 5 minutes.
Add the tomato purée, stir and cook for another 5 minutes. Add the browned mince, pour in the red wine and allow to reduce by two-thirds. Add the tomatoes and stock and simmer over a low heat for at least 1 hour till nice and saucy.
Fold in the chopped red peppers and simmer until they are heated through. Stir in 2½ tbsp of the spiced butter for mild-medium heat (or more if you like it hotter). Season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
Build up your nachos in layers, nachos, chilli, cheese REPEAT until you are satisfied. Pop in the oven at 180C till the cheese is bubbling and golden, take out and add all your toppings, serve with some extra nachos on the side.
