Instructions
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).
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.
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.
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.
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).

TIP: Loosen with a splash of water if necessary!
