Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

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

Steps:

  • 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 Tabasco 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, jalapeƱo (if using) and coriander.
