Instructions

1

a) Boil a half-full kettle.

c) Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

2

a) While the rice cooks, heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).

b) Once hot, add the beef mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

3

c) Add the kidney beans, water for the sauce and sugar (see pantry for both amount amounts), then bring to the boil.

5

a) Lower the heat to medium and simmer until the sauce has thickened, 8-10 mins. Stir occasionally. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

b) Once thickened, taste the chilli and season with salt and pepper if needed.

c) Add a splash of water if it's a little thick.
