Ingredients
- nacho chips200 g
- cheese1 cup, grated
- tomato1, diced
- onion0.5 cup, diced
- jalapeno2 tbsp, sliced
Method
Arrange the base
Spread the nacho chips in an even, single layer in a shallow air fryer safe dish. Keeping them flat and unpiled lets the heat reach every chip so the edges crisp instead of staying soft.
Add toppings
Scatter the diced tomato, diced onion and sliced jalapeno evenly over the chips. Spreading them out means every scoop gets a bit of topping rather than one loaded corner and bare chips.
Add cheese
Sprinkle the grated cheese evenly across the top so it melts into a smooth blanket. An even layer helps the cheese hold the toppings in place once it softens and turns glossy.
Place in the basket
Set the dish carefully into the air fryer basket so nothing tips or spills. A steady, level dish keeps the cheese and toppings sitting on the chips instead of sliding to one side.
Air fry
Air fry at 190°C for 6 min until the cheese melts fully and the chips at the edges turn crisp and golden. Serve straight away while the cheese is still soft and stretchy.
