Dry-fry the cashews in a large saucepan or casserole dish over a medium heat until golden brown. Remove from the heat, leave to cool, then roughly chop. Heat a drizzle of oil in the same pan over a high heat, then fry the corn on the cob on each side for 20 seconds to char. Remove from the pan, set aside, then tip in the halved carrots and fry for 5 mins. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Heat the remaining oil in the same pan over a medium heat and fry the onions and celery for 10 mins until soft and slightly coloured. Tip in the peppers and garlic, then fry for another 5 mins before adding the Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, chipotle paste and tomato purée. Fry for 1 min until the spices are fragrant, then add the halved cherry tomatoes and fry for another 2 mins.

Stir in the drained kidney beans, canned tomatoes, rice, stock, vinegar and sugar, then stir until everything is combined. Bring to the boil, then cover with a lid and simmer with a lid on for 35-40 mins on a medium-low heat, stirring halfway through, until the rice is cooked and liquid absorbed.

Slice the corn off the cob and mix it through the rice along with the carrots. Season and garnish with the spring onions and cashews.
