Nachos Supreme is a delicious sinful street food from the Tex Mex Cuisine. Since this food is so versatile that you can practically load it as much as you wish. This has a layer of fried tortilla chips loaded with different layers, finally with melted cheese!
I had this ever since I came to know about it and always wanted to go the extra mile to make it as interesting as possible. This is also the dish I did just before posting it. I had the different components ready and froze until I could get time to make it and in the end, all it took was just about 15 to 20 mins to get the final dish done. I really wished I had taken the efforts to do this over the weekend for clicking better pictures.
I used the same Soya Granule Masala. As I had mentioned I am not fond of soya and didn't even expect the granules to be even more strong in taste. Since I made a huge batch of it, I prepared all the dishes that required this component. I had the rajma soaking and stored in the fridge for over a week. I have few other things also stocked like this and couldn't get to them. Time is so short and especially killing if you have to write two posts a day that also requires so many other trimmings.
Anyway, I checked my bookmarks and saw I had Mir's post to refer to. After reading through it and a few more on the net, I decided to have multiple layers as Konda is really so fond of Mexican cheesy stuff. My niece has come down to visit us as she has completed her ten grade and has a long vacation. Though I have asked her to list out any new favorites that she wants me to cook, I will be anyway cooking her favourite dishes this week.
Coming back to this dish, I was planning on making it during weekend evenings but got distracted. So I ended up making it as I cooked our breakfast and lunch. I was only able to click some quick ones from my mobile and really regret not making it ahead. I confirmed later with Konda and I got so many hearts when I asked about the dish. I was happy enough, to say the least!
Since I have repeated Italy about 2 times already I wasn't prepared to make Neapolitan Style Pizza, although this has been on my list forever! Likewise, I had to drop Nam Manao which is Thai Limeade for the same reason as only savoury street foods. I couldn't come across any other N apart from these for my A to Z International Street Foods If you are interested to know the Flatbread for N, check this post.

How to make Nachos Supreme
For the Minced Soya Granules
Bring a pot of water to boil along with turmeric and salt. Add soya granules and let it cook for a couple of minutes. Drain it in a colander for a while till all the water drains away. If required you can further squeeze to make the granules very dry.
Heat a nonstick pan with oil, add bay leaf, and then finely chopped onions. Saute well.
Add the soya granules and saute till it becomes dry.
Add all the spice powders and combine well.
Then grind soaked cashews along with tomatoes to a fine puree
Combine all and simmer for 10 mins till the soya granules get cooked in masala well. Keep it aside.
For the Beans / Rajma
Wash and soak the rajma overnight and change water couple of times.
Pressure cook with enough water for about 4 to 5 times or till done.
Drain water and keep it aside.
Heat a nonstick pan with oil, saute onions till it changes colour.
Add the cooked rajma and spice powders and cook in low flame for 5 mins.
For the Nacho Cheese Sauce
In a nonstick pan, melt the butter and fry the flour till it is done about 4 to 5 mins.
Add milk and cook on low flame. Add salt, garlic powder, onion powder and pepper along with grated cheese.
Cook for few minutes and remove. Allow it to cool.
Pulse to a smooth paste and continue to add more milk and water as per the consistency needed.
I normally make a huge batch of this and freeze.
For the Tortilla chips
In a bowl mix the corn flour and all purpose flour, salt with enough water to form a soft dough.
Dust well and roll out a thin disc of about 9 inch diameter.
Prick with a fork all over for it not to puff up.
Cut into triangles.
Heat oil and deep fry these chips.
Drain to a bowl and sprinkle salt and pepper.
These make a great snack as such!
Assembling the Nachos Supreme
Lay all the fried Tortilla Chips on a serving plate
Top it with Cooked beans and Soya granules
Top it next with Cheese Sauce
Next goes the Salsa
Finally cover it completely with grated cheese.
Microwave the plate for 30 secs.

Wow !..a perfect wholesome dish..so rich in protein. I have never used soya with nachos, but it definitely takes the dish to another level. Hats off to your planning Valli..I must say we all need to learn so much from you.
Harini says
What a platter there, Valli. I would simply get store bought Tortilla chips and assemble the layers 🙂 You have certainly gone the extra mile here.
srividhya says
These are my favorite. I just use some tortilla chips, beans, enchilada sauce, cheese and bake it for the quicker version but you have done everything from scratch. As always you rock.
Kalyani says
Hey same pinch valli ! I too made nachos from scratch and it was fun .. mine was a tad simpler than yours. This addition of rajma and creamy layers makes it very attractive
Gayathri Kumar says
This nachos supreme is sure to please every kid. Love the various layers going into it and the topping of double cheese looks fantastic Valli..
Pavani says
I can have a big plate of those cheesy, loaded nachos all by myself 🙂 Nachos supreme look and sound supremely delicious. I love the idea of using soy granules to make the topping.
Sharmila - The Happie Friends Potpourri Corner says
Love homemade nachos.. Always love it and it the toppings added it is more yummy..
mayurisjikoni says
By adding soy mince to the nachos you've made it into a filling and wholesome meal. I love nachos with loads of melted cheese on top. I usually use beans, corn, chopped tomatoes, peppers. Love you homemade nachos.
Priya Srinivasan says
Wow valli what a platter there! My god,
So many elements and such flavors! I bet it tasted divine! Can’t wait to try these ????
manjulabharathkumar2016 says
wow the nachos look amazing and the pictures are fantastic valli, You sure did make this dish super interesting no doubt with choice of topping. My hubby isn't fond of soya granules as well so I make use of them very rarely .. Your niece is so lucky to have a athai like you 🙂 Fantastic pick for the letter valli.. am amazed how manage your time in preparing such fabulous recipes as it needs lots of efforts and planning .. I remember making Nam manao for bm, do post the other 2 recipes that you planned soon 🙂
Sandhya Ramakrishnan says
Nacho supreme is one of the most famous food in any Mexican joint here and unfortunately we vegetarians can never eat it out. It is always made with beef. I like your vegetarian version and wish I had better experience with soya granules. I have cooked with it couple of times and it so closely resembles meat that I could not get myself to like it. I use some beans when making it 🙂
sapana says
You made your own nacho chips, omg I am speechless. I have also planned tomethr nacho supreme with soya mince and now I have your perfect recipe to try.
Suma Gandlur says
We love soya and so i am loving the addition of granules here. My kids would not mind a plate each of these loaded nachos.
Padmajha PJ says
Just the mention of melted cheese got me drooling. I have seen this dish in so many blogs but have never tried it. Am sure it will be a hit .Let's see when I cam make it!
Simply Tadka says
Wow.. I always love nacho with baked cheese and some topping.. Perfect munching snack.
