Steps
- Step 1
Cook the hash brown bites in the oven or air fryer as per the pack instructions (this is usually about 20-22 minutes in the oven or 15 minutes in the air fryer).
- Step 2
While the hash brown bites are cooking, make the chilli. Add the oil to a frying pan (skillet) over a med-high heat.
- Step 3
Add the minced beef, salt and pepper and cook for 5 minutes until the beef is browned breaking up any large bits as you cook the beef.
- Step 4
Add the onion, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and garlic and fry for a further 5 minutes, stirring often.
- Step 5
Add the fajita seasoning, smoked paprika, beef stock cube, hot sauce, and tomato puree and cook for another 2 minutes stirring continuously.
- Step 6
Add the passata, black beans, sugar, and water. Stir everything together, bring to a simmer, turn down the heat and cook for 5-10 minutes stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
- Step 7
By now the hash brown bites should be ready.
- Step 8
Divide the hash brown bites between 4 bowls. Top with the chilli.
- Step 9
Sprinkle on the cheese, add a tablespoon of sour cream to each bowl, then sprinkle on the tortilla chips and spring onions and serve.
