Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 red onion
  • 1/2 brown onion
  • 1 red pepper
  • 2 tsp dried chilli
  • 3 tsp smoked paprika
  • 3 tbsp tomato puree concentrate
  • 4 tbsp tomato sauce
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1 & 1/2 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 x 400g canned black beans (in water)
  • 1 x 400g canned red kidney beans (in water)
  • 1 x 400g canned cannellini beans (in water)
  • 1 x 200g canned sweet corn (in water)
  • 1 x 400g canned chopped tomatoes
  • Salt & pepper
Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a wok, set on a high heat. (I find cooking in a wok super speedy). Dice the red and brown onion - sauté until glossy and transparent.
Slice the red pepper and add to the wok, along with the dried chilli and smoked paprika.
Next add the tomato puree concentrate and tomato sauce, reduce the heat and give it a good thorough stir.
Drain the black beans, red kidney beans and cannellini beans and add to the wok (be careful not to over drain - retain a little of the ‘bean juice’ - this will make for a more velvety and viscous Chilli Con Veggie).
Add the sweet corn and chopped tomatoes to the wok. And give it another good thorough stir.
Lastly, crush the garlic with a press and add to the wok, along with the balsamic vinegar and a little crack of salt n’ pepper.
Allow to simmer on a low heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes.
