Heat the olive oil in a large pan over a medium-low heat and cook the diced onion, chopped garlic and diced pepper for 10 mins, until the onion and pepper are softened.

Step 2

Add the tomato purée, vinegar, chilli flakes, ground cumin, sugar, oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper, stir well and cook for 1 min, then tip in the passata and cook for 2-3 mins.

Reduce the heat to low and simmer for around 15-20 mins, stirring now and then, until heated through. Meanwhile, cook the rice following pack instructions. Once the chilli is cooked, taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed.
