- 1 tsp Smoked paprika

Instructions
- Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wide pan over medium-high heat. Add diced onion, cook 4 minutes until soft.
- Add the beef mince. Brown 6-8 minutes, breaking up, until crispy at the edges.

- Stir in the tomato purée, cook 1 minute. Pour in 4 tbsp water. Simmer 3-4 minutes until thickened and glossy.
- Drain and rinse the black beans. Tip the beans into the beef pan, fold to combine and warm through 2 minutes.
- Spread the tortilla chips in a single thick layer on a baking tray. Spoon the beef mixture over the chips, distributing evenly. Scatter the grated cheese generously over the top.
- Bake 8-10 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling.
- Lift the tray onto the table (use oven gloves). Top with chopped fresh tomato, sliced jalapeños, dollops of sour cream, spoonfuls of guacamole, sliced spring onion, fresh coriander and a generous squeeze of lime. Eat directly from the tray with hands.
