Mexican Pizza with One Secret Ingredient
"The first time I came across the idea of making Mexican Pizza was on social networks. I would usually do tortilla wraps, enchiladas, chimichangas or something on those lines, but I loved the idea of making this pizza at first sight. To keep it all together, it is important to spread the refried beans over tomato salsa, to keep the other layers firm and in one piece. As for the refried beans, I chose a cheaper type, which cause me a problem, as I had to enrich them by adding more chili, garlic and chopped coriander: so much for saving money in the wrong place. Since I was stuck with the beans, I forgot to measure the preparation time. This is a perfect example of how important the start is. One thing leads to another, and suddenly you find yourself in an odd place and time. And, yes, everything started with beans. As for the meat, when I fried it, I added two small sliced chilis, but if that is too hot for you, use less, or skip the chilis altogether according to your own taste."

I love hot and spicy food and will try anything Mexican any day. I guess the secret is out now that the secret ingredient is chocolate but I can't wrap my head around that. I am sure it does something phenomenal for the dish though. I like the fact that there is sweetcorn on it but I am going to have to try this out to finally make up my mind about the chocolate.

When I read this, I wondered what the secret ingredient might be. I was a bit surprised to learn it was (spoiler!) dark chocolate. When I read that, I immediately thought mole sauce. I'm interested in trying this out since I've made something similar without the chocolate and I could see varying the ingredients to include a bit of mole sauce. I like the sweet corn garnish, though I think some roasted corn might be an even better touch.
