Ingredients
- 150 g Tortilla Chips
- 100 g grated Cheddar
- 50 g Jalapeños from the jar
- 2 stalks Spring onions
- 100 g Sour cream
- 50 g salsa
- 1 tsp Paprika powder
- Optional: 50 g black beans from the can
- Optional: 50 g Corn from the can
- Optional: fresh Coriander for garnishing
Instructions
- 1. Preheat the air fryer to 180 °C. Wait about 3 minutes until the appliance reaches the temperature.
- 2. Slice the spring onions into thin rings. Let the jalapeños drain well. If using beans or corn, rinse them briefly and pat them dry.
- 3. Divide all ingredients into two equal halves. You will build the nachos in two layers so that every chip is covered.
- 4. Place half of the tortilla chips loosely in the basket. Ensure they overlap slightly but are not packed too tightly.
- 5. Sprinkle half of the grated cheddar cheese evenly over the chips. Distribute half of the jalapeños and spring onions on top.
- 6. Add half of the beans or corn. Lightly dust everything with paprika powder for color and flavor.
- 7. Place the remaining chips as a second layer on top. Repeat the process with the remaining cheese and toppings.
- 8. Add especially plenty of cheese to the top layer. This ensures a appetizingly browned surface.
- 9. Insert the basket into the preheated air fryer. Set 180 °C and 5 minutes.
- 10. Do not open the fryer during this time. This would let heat escape and disrupt the melting process.
- 11. Open the basket briefly after 5 minutes. Check if the cheese is melted but not yet brown.
- 12. Set the fryer for another 3 minutes at 180 °C. This gives the cheese a golden color and bubbles.
- 13. Carefully remove the basket. Let the nachos rest for 1 minute so the hot cheese sets slightly.
- 14. Slide the nachos onto a large plate. Add dollops of sour cream and salsa on top.
- 15. Garnish with fresh cilantro and additional spring onions. Serve immediately while the cheese is creamy.
