Vegetable and Bean Chilli

This vegetable and bean chilli is delicious and warming. Perfect with rice or jacket potato, you can add any vegetables you like. This version uses a very small amount of chilli powder but if you like it spicy you can add more.

Ingredients

  • 1tsp ground cumin

  • 1tsp ground coriander

  • 1tsp garlic paste

  • 1/4 tsp chilli powder or one mild chilli chopped up

  • 1 tbsp Oil

  • ½ Red onion

  • ½ Pepper

  • 1 carrot, grated

  • 1 can of mixed beans

  • 1 can of chopped tomatoes

  • 2 tblsp vegetable stock

  • 10 sprigs of fresh coriander

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Tia's tip

If you have more time  you can simmer for 15-20 minutes - you may need to add a little more stock

What do we need?

  • Teaspoon

  • Saucepan

  • Wooden spoon or spatula to stir

  • Sharp knife

  • Scissors

  • Cup

  • Chopping board

What do we do?

                     

  • Chop the onion into small cubes. The easiest way is to put half an onion flat side down on the chopping board. Cut from the root outwards (do not cut through the root) then cut across the onion the other way. 

  • Cut the pepper into small cubes. Divide the pepper in half putting one half away for another dish. Cut the remaining pepper into thin slices and then cut again into small cubes. 

  • Add the oil to the saucepan and cook the onion and peppers. Cook for 2-3 minutes

  • Add garlic and spices and cook for another minute

  • Drain the can of mixed beans and add to the saucepan

  • Add the chopped tomatoes and vegetable stock, stir well. 

  • Simmer for 5 minutes

  • Grate the carrot and add to the chilli then simmer for a further 5 minutes

  • While the chilli is simmering cut the coriander by putting the leaves and stalks into the cup and use the scissors to chop until it is in small pieces

  • When the liquid in the chilli has reduced and the chilli has become thicker, add the coriander and salt and pepper until you like how it tastes.
