Chilli Nacho Beef Pockets
Chilli Nacho Beef Pockets are a bold, street-food inspired raw product designed to stand out on the butcher’s counter. They deliver strong visual appeal, clear flavour cues, and excellent added value while remaining familiar and easy to cook.
Quality beef mince is mixed with Verstegen Hamburger Mix Complete to ensure consistent seasoning, binding, and juiciness. Verstegen Sambal Oelek replaces water in the mix, adding natural chilli heat and depth for a rounded, punchy flavour. The filling is packed into pitta bread, which holds its shape well and helps retain moisture during cooking. Grated cheese melts through the beef, while Verstegen Sliceable Nacho Cheese Sauce creates a rich, creamy centre that reinforces the nacho theme.
The pockets sit on a base of Verstegen Chilli Con Carne Sauce for added richness and moisture. The outside is brushed with Verstegen Mexican Madness World Grill, adding smoky spice, colour, and shine. Finished with Verstegen Decoration Blend France and fresh chilli, these pockets offer strong shelf appeal, easy production, and versatile cooking options for oven, pan, or BBQ use.
Method
Mix the beef mince with Hamburger Mix and Sambal Oelek (Using Sambal Oelek instead of water).
Cut open the pitta breads (you can heat these briefly in the microwave to make them easier to cut in to so you don’t break the pitta).
Fill the pitta with the chilli burger mix and also add grated cheese and 1 slice of Sliceable Nacho Cheese Sauce.
Ladle Chilli Con Carne Sauce on the base of a dish to sit the pittas on.
Brush the pittas with Mexican Madness World Grill and sit the pittas on top of the Chilli Con Carne Sauce.
Decorate the top of the pitta with a sprinkle of Decoration Blend France and place 1 chilli in each pitta to garnish.
Cook time – 20 minutes at 160°c.
