| 1. Chili: | 2. Fry the onion, cumin and smoked paprika in a drop of oil. when soft remove from pan. | 3. Fry the mince until brown and then drain. | 4. Return the onion mix and mince back to the pan. | 5. Add 2 tbsp of tomato puree and stir together. | 6. Because some of the beef flavours can be removed, I usually add an oxo cube about now. you don't have to, it's totally up to personal preference. | 7. Add the drained kidney beans and tin of tomatoes. For an extra kick, most supermarkets do the beans in a chili sauce - this is particularly tasty. | 8. Add a bit of sugar to get rid of that dreadful tomato tang. | 9. Leave to simmer for about 30 minutes or until everything is tasting all kinds of awesome. | 10. Take the chili off the heat and stir through the creme fraiche. | 11. (Alternatively, you can cheat and use mince and a jar of ready made chili sauce from the supermarket -- it still work if you are in a bit of a rush). | 12. Now for the layers! | 13. Empty your ricotta cheese into a bowl and smoosh it up so that it's not the shape of the tub, add as much coriander as you like and a few good shakes of cumin. | 14. Stir it all up and then spread onto one of your tortillas and then add another one on top so you have a ricotta/tortilla sandwich. | 15. Layer your lasagne as you would usually, stick the cheese on the top - perhaps a bit of fresh coriander and a drizzle of olive oil! I don't usually put ricotta on the top, mainly just cheese and a bit of mozzarella if I am feeling fancy. The olive oil is mainly to stop the top tortilla from drying out, so if you use something else on the top you can omit this step :). | 16. Cook on about Gas Mark 7 for 20/30 minutes or until the cheese is as crispy and golden as you like it. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
