Instructions

Start the Chilli
1

a) Heat a frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil). Drain and rinse the kidney beans in a sieve.

b) Once the pan is hot, add the beef mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks.

c) When the mince has browned, drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper.

Up the Flavour
2

a) Stir in the passata, Mexican style spice mix, chicken stock paste, kidney beans and half the hard Italian style cheese, along with the sugar and the water (see pantry for both amounts), then bring to the boil.

b) Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened, 3-5 mins. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Finish and Serve
3

a) Meanwhile, cook the rice according to pack instructions.

b) Divide the rice between your serving bowls and top with the speedy chilli. 

c) Add a dollop of the smashed avocado and a sprinkle of the remaining cheese to finish.

Enjoy!
