Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Cut your potatoes (skins on) into chips
Add the chips to a baking tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
Give everything a good mix up and put the tray in the oven for 20-25 min or until golden and crisp

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add your beef mince and cook for 8-10 min or until browned and cooked through (no pink meat!), breaking it up with a wooden spoon as you go

Once browned, add your tomato paste with 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] sugar and 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] flour and cook for 1-2 min or until fragrant
Once fragrant, add your Henderson's Relish, beef stock mix and 100ml [150ml] [200ml] cold water
Bring to the boil and cook for 3-4 min or until the sauce thickens to a gravy-like consistency – this is your sloppy joe filling

Meanwhile, grate your cheddar cheese
Slice your ciabatta[s] in half

Top the ciabatta bases with the sloppy joe filling and grated cheese and place a ciabatta lid on top – these are your filled ciabattas
Reserve the pan

Wipe the reserved pan clean (careful, it will be hot!) and return it to a medium-high heat with a knob of butter
Once hot, add the filled ciabattas and press them down very firmly with a spatula
Cook for 4-5 min on each side or until the bread is golden and the cheese has melted – this is your sloppy joe grilled cheese

Wash your salad and pat it dry with kitchen paper
Combine your cider vinegar with 2 tbsp [3 tbsp] [4 tbsp] olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper in a large bowl and give everything a good mix up – this is your dressing
Toss the salad with the dressing – this is your dressed salad

Cut the sloppy joe grilled cheese in half and serve with the chips and dressed salad on the side
Drizzle your mayo over the chips
Enjoy!
