Melt the butter in a small saucepan over a medium heat

Add the flour and cook, stirring, for one to two minutes, or until starting to turn golden brown

Whisk in the milk gradually while cooking and stirring continuously until the mixture thickens and smoothes

Once the cheddar cheese has melted completely and the sauce has thickened, turn down the heat and stir in the shredded cheese

After taking the cheese sauce off the stove, thoroughly mix in the Sriracha sauce

Put aside

Set the oven temperature to 175C 350F

Place the tortilla chips in an ovenproof platter or a sizable baking sheet

Spoon the homemade taco meat evenly over the tortilla chips

Over the meat and chips, drizzle the Sriracha cheese sauce

Top with chopped cilantro, sliced black olives, diced tomatoes, and diced red onion
