Method

Dust brisket in flour, salt and pepper, brown the beef in a dutch oven with a splash of oil. Once it’s all nicely browned, set aside.

Add the onion, garlic, leek, and chillies, and cook until slightly charred and softened. Remove from the pot

Blend up the aromatics with the seasonings, and a splash of beef stock.

Put the beef back in the pot, pour over the blended mixture and the remaining beef stock, then pop the whole thing into the oven at 150 C for 2-3 hours

Remove the beef, shred up, and remove the reduced sauce.

In the same pot melt the butter, then add the flour. Cook for a few minutes, then add the milk. Whisk together, then add the Doritos nacho cheese, along with a couple spoonfuls of the sauce.

Add the beef back in, mix well, then transfer to a tray, and let set in the fridge for an hour.

Scoop into croquette shapes, then stuff with cheese. Coat in flour, beaten egg, then the crushed chilli heatwave Doritos.

Preheat the oil until 180 C, then fry until golden and crispy.

Serve with Doritos sour cream & chive dip, and enjoy!
