Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel).
Pop the chips onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.
Meanwhile, halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Grate the cheese.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the beef and pork mince, bacon lardons and onion. Fry until the mince has browned, 5-6 mins.
Use a spoon to break up the mince as it cooks.
When the mince has browned, drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle. Cook bacon thoroughly.
Add the Central American style spice mix and garlic to the mince and fry for 1 min more.
Stir in the beef stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts) and simmer until thickened, 2-3 mins.
Remove the beef and pork mixture from the heat and stir through the tomato ketchup (see pantry for amount).
Just before serving, pop the tortillas (2 per person) into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.
Transfer the warmed tortillas to your serving plates. Add a handful of rocket and top with the mince mixture.
Drizzle over the burger sauce and sprinkle with the grated Cheddar.
Serve the chips alongside.
Enjoy!
