Black Bean Chilli

Black Bean Chilli

with Brown Rice & Citrus Crème Fraîche

Recipe Development Team
Recipe Development TeamPublished on April 27, 2015

We’re a traditional bunch here at the Fresh Farm. Luke has often been known to throw his jacket into a puddle to save a lady’s slippers, whilst in spite of his tender years Ed insists on dressing like a man 30 years his senior. That’s why we decided to use chipotle, a smoky chilli paste produced by local farmers in the Oaxaca region of Mexico, who use age-old methods to work the land and produce this rich, sweet, spicy concoction. Add bit by bit, it’s hot!

Cooking Instructions and Tips

1

Boil a pot of water with ¼ tsp of salt for your rice. Wash the rice in a sieve under running water for a minute. Boil the rice for 25 mins then drain and put back in the pot. Cover with a tea towel and leave off the heat until ready to serve.

Cut the onions
2

Peel and cut the onion lengthways through the root. Finely slice the onion into half moon shapes.

3

Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a frying pan on medium-low heat. Once hot add the onion with ¼ tsp of salt and some pepper. Stir the onions and place a lid on the pan.

Add cumin and tomato puree
4

After 5 mins take the lid off the pan and add the cumin and tomato purée and stir everything together.

5

After 1 minute add the chopped tomatoes and turn the heat to medium. Tip: If you have any sugar in the cupboard add ½ tsp now.

Add the chipotle to the pan
6

Drain and rinse the kidney beans and the black beans. Add half a tin each of kidney beans and black beans to the pan. Add half the stock pot. Lastly add the chipotle paste - go carefully, it’s hot! Simmer on a low heat for 5-10 mins or until the rice is cooked.

Squeeze lime juice into crème fraîche
7

Meanwhile, zest the lime and mix a pinch of the zest and a little squeeze of the juice into the crème fraîche. Tip: When zesting (i.e. grating) the lime, don’t go down to the white part underneath the skin as this tastes bitter.

8

Serve your chilli with the rice, a good dollop of crème fraîche and a big squeeze of fresh lime juice.
