This one requires the Mad Scientist's Gorgeous Guacamole as a key ingredient, together with corn chips, sliced jalapeno chillies, sour cream, shredded cheese and ideally salsa and refried beans. However, as the later two were not available, the Mad Scientist is eternally inventive and improvised with some cans of chopped spiced Peri Peri tomatoes, and a can of Chilli con Carne combined with a chunky soup of the same name!
Firstly lay out a base of corn chips in a large lasagna dish or similar and top with salsa/tomatoes.
Add a generous quantity of guacamole on top.
Mix together the Chilli con Carne and spice to taste. Some Peri Peri sauce was added in this instance. Layer the mixture over the top of the existing layers in the dish.
Next add the jalapenos (strategically distributed and top with shredded cheese.
Well, that's the first full layer finished! Start off another layer with some more corn chips and repeat the individual layers as above.
At this stage the dish is pretty full, so add some more shredded cheese to finish it off. Place in a 180 degrees Celsius oven and keep an eye on it until you can see that there is some bubbling coming up from below and the cheese is nicely melted and a bit golden-brown in colour. This will take 30-45-60 minutes depending on the size of the dish and the number of layers.
Smear the sour cream over the top and then return to the oven for a short time to warm the cheese through. Then enjoy - plenty to go around!
