Cheesy Mixed Bean Loaded Fries

In the meantime, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.

Drain and rinse the mixed beans in a sieve. Halve the lime.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onion to the pan and stir-fry until softened, 4-5 mins.

Meanwhile, cut the tomato into 1cm chunks and add to a small bowl. 

Add half the lime juice to the tomato and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Grate the cheese.

Once the onion is cooked, lower the heat to medium.

Stir in the garlic and the Central American style spice mix. Fry for 1 min more.

Stir through the passata, vegetable stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts), then simmer until thickened slightly, 3-4 mins.

Stir the beans into the sauce, mashing half with a potato masher in the pan.

Add the remaining lime juice and stir to combine. Remove from the heat.

Stir through the butter (see pantry for amount).

Season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if you feel it needs it.
