Instructions

Make the Rice
1
  • Pour 300ml cold salted water (double for 4p) into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
  • Stir in the rice and bring to the boil.
  • Once boiling, lower the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 10 mins.
  • Remove from the heat.
  • Keep covered for 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
Prep the Veg
2
  • Trim the courgette then quarter lengthways. Chop into 1cm chunks.
  • Halve, peel and then finely chop the onion.
  • Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
  • Drain and rinse the cannellini beans in a sieve.
Fry the Onion
3
  • Place a large pot for the chilli over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil
  • Once hot, add the onion and season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook the onion until softened, 4-5 mins, stirring occasionally.
Add the Mince
4
  • Add the pork mince and fry until browned, 4-5 mins.
  • Break it up with a spoon as it cooks.
  • Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Simmer the Chilli
5
  • Add the courgette and cannellini beans to the pot along with the Central American spice and paprika. Cook for 1 min, stirring often.
  • Add tomato paste, stock powder and 350ml water (double for 4p).
  • Bring to the boil and simmer for 10-12 mins, or until the veg is tender.
  • Stir in the chilli flakes (use less if you don't like spice). 
  • Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.

TIP: Loosen with a splash of water if necessary!

Finish and Serve
6
