Double the amounts for this one-pot black bean chilli, then freeze the leftovers for busy days. It tastes just as great reheated as it does freshly cooked
Method
Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.
Step 1
Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish over a medium heat. Fry the meatballs for 5 mins until browned, then transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon.
Step 2
Fry the onion and peppers with a pinch of salt for 7 mins. Add the coriander stalks, garlic, paprika and cumin and fry for 1 min more. Tip in the sugar, tomatoes and beans, and bring to a simmer. Season, return the meatballs to the pan and cook, covered, for 15 mins.
Step 3
Meanwhile, cook the rice as per the instructions. To freeze, leave to cool completely and transfer to large freezerproof bags.
Step 4
Serve the chilli with the rice and the coriander leaves scattered over.
