Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Cut each tortilla into 8 triangles and spread out over 2 baking trays. Bake for 5-6 mins until crisp and just starting to turn golden.
- Meanwhile, dot the fish with butter. Place on a microwavable plate, cover loosely and cook on full power for 5 mins*, turning halfway. Transfer to a clean plate, pat dry with kitchen paper, then flake and gently toss with 75g salsa.
- Put the tortillas in an ovenproof dish, top with the fish and scatter over the cheese. Bake for 5-7 mins until the cheese starts to melt.
- Meanwhile, mix the cherry tomatoes and chopped coriander into the remaining salsa. Serve a few spoonfuls on top of the nachos (serve the remainder on the side). Scatter over the spring onions and reserved coriander leaves.
