Lifestyle Mantra

Netflix and chill or cosy nights can feel incomplete without that perfect snack and drink. While you may not be able to go to the movies and indulge in scrumptious cinema food, bringing the experience to you is just a click away. But the true excitement only sparks when you decide to create the experience for yourself. We have for you the perfect snack combo for your personal bedroom cinema experience – Nachos and Slushy!

Whether you choose to make it alone or with your loved ones, this casual yet decadent combo doesn’t take much; all you need is our simple recipe, a few ingredients, and a heart ready to have fun.

For the Nachos

The best part about making nachos at home – there are no defined measurements; it is all based on your taste. You just need to know what you need, how much you need? That is totally your call!

Ingredients:

  • Tortilla chips (Doritos)
  • Shredded cheddar cheese
  • Toppings of your choice (Jalapeños, olives, shredded chicken, minced beef)

Method:

Start by preheating your oven to 180˚C. Line a baking dish or sheet with foil or a baking mat. Spread your tortilla chips on this sheet and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Bake this until the cheese has melted. Serve warm and enjoy!

Variations:

You already went through our standard nacho recipe but elevate the dish a little further by adding a layer of toppings such as cooked shredded chicken or ground beef, jalapeños, onions, followed by another layer of cheese. Top the final product with some sour cream and serve with a side of salsa or guacamole sauce, and you have a restaurant-quality nachos dish from your home kitchen!

The Nachos Cheese Sauce

For those who prefer their nachos cheese dip separately or do not have the time to whip up oven-baked nachos, all you need is a packet of Doritos and a few ingredients to make a simple cheese dip.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 to 2 cups of shredded cheddar
  • ¼ tsp chilli powder

Method:

In a saucepan, mix the butter and flour over medium heat until foamy. Continue whisking for a minute to cook the flour. Add in the milk and stir; increase the heat to let the milk simmer. When the milk is thick enough, add the cheese, a little at a time, mixing between each addition. Do this on low heat till all the cheese melts. Then stir in the seasoning and you have a delicious homemade nachos cheese dip!

For the Slushy

Ice cold slashes with delicious warm nachos help reign in the full cinema experience. All it needs is a powerful blender and four ingredients!

Ingredients:

  • 3 to 4 cups of ice
  • ½ teaspoon of Kool aid powder
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 cup Club soda/ sprite/ tonic water

Method:

In a blender, pour in the club soda, kool-aid, and sugar, and mix for a few seconds. Then add in the ice and pulse till the ice is crushed to form, effectively the consistency of a slushy. Pour into slushy cups or mason jars. Dress with a slice of lemon and some colourful straws!
