Lentil Veggie Chilli

When the water is boiling, add 0.25 tsp of salt, stir in the rice, lower the heat to medium and pop a lid on the pan. Leave to cook for 10 mins, then remove the pan from the heat (still covered) and leave to the side for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a saucepan on medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the onion and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the onion is soft, 4-5 mins, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic, chipotle paste and Mexican fajita spice (use less chipotle paste and spice if you don't like heat), stir and cook for 1 minute.

Pour in the water (see ingredients for amount), stir in the vegetable stock powder, sun-dried tomato paste and add the red split lentils. Stir together, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium, cover with a lid and simmer until the lentils are tender, 20-25 mins. Stir every few mins to ensure the lentils aren't sticking to the bottom of the pan. Add the kidney beans for the final 5 mins, and a splash of water if you feel it needs it.

While the rice and chilli cooks, grate the lime zest and halve the lime. Quarter the tomatoes and finely chop the coriander (stalks and all). Squeeze half the lime juice into a bowl and add the olive oil (see ingredient list for amount), season with salt and pepper. Stir together, then add the tomatoes and coriander. Mix together and keep to one side.
