Nachos Agrios (Sour Cream Nachos) image

Posted for Zaar World Tour 2005. I thought I'd never post a recipe I'd never make, but I think this is it. I DO only post recipes that sound very yummy, like this one. It's high in fat, so it's for those of you who think you can handle it. It sounds unbelievably good. I love nachos, who doesn't? From a special edition of Saveur, The Best of Tex-Mex Cooking. From San Antonio's Los Barrios restaurant, it's presumably "the most outstanding appetizer there is." Adding the water comment is my own addition.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/2 cups refried beans
5 -6 ounces tortilla chips (homemade or top quality store-bought)
1 cup swiss cheese, grated
1 cup provolone cheese, grated
1 jalapeno, stemmed, seeded and diced
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon pimiento, drained and chopped (jarred)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Heat refried beans in a pan over medium heat until hot (add a little water, but not too much, if you think it's necessary).
  • Spread chips out evenly on large oval oven-proof dish. Spread beans on top of chips, sprinkle cheeses over beans, and scatter jalapenos over cheese.
  • Bake until cheese is completely melted, about 5 minutes. Garnish with dollops of sour cream then scatter pimentos over nachos. Serve immediately.
