Instructions

Prep the Veggies
1

Halve, then remove the core from the green pepper and chop it into ½cm cubes. Peel the carrot and remove the top and bottom, then chop into ½cm cubes. Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all). Drain and rinse the kidney beans in a colander.

Start the Chili
2

Heat a splash of oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the green pepper and carrot. Gently fry until softened, 3-4 mins. Add the cumin and chilli powder (go easy if you don't like it too spicy!). Stir to coat and fry for another 30 seconds.

Make it Saucy
3

Add the water (amount specified in the ingredient list) to the pan along with the vegetable stock pot. Stir to dissolve the stock pot, then add the kidney beans, quinoa, chopped tomatoes and tomato purée. Season with a pinch of salt and a good grind of black pepper and stir everything together.

Mix the Sour Cream
4

Bring the chilli to the boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer. Cook until the quinoa is tender, about 15-20 mins, stirring occasionally. TIP: The quinoa is cooked when it is tender, but there is still a bite to the grain. Meanwhile, zest the lime into the sour cream together with a pinch of salt and a good grind of black pepper.

Thicken the Sauce
5

Place the cornflour in a small bowl and add an equal amount of cold water. Mix with a fork until the cornflour has dissolved. TIP: This is called 'slaking' the cornflour. It makes a mixture called a ‘slurry’ which doesn't sound very appetising but is very helpful for thickening a sauce, soup or stew!

Finish and Serve
6

Add three-quarters of the coriander to the chilli and stir through. Mix the slurry again and add it to the chilli, stirring continuously. Gently heat, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and serve the chilli in bowls topped with some sour cream. Sprinkle over the remaining coriander and tuck in. Enjoy!
