onions 2, chopped
mild chilli powder 2 tbsp
dried oregano 1 tbsp
garlic powder or granules 2 tsp
ground cumin 2 tsp
tomato purée 4 tbsp
passata 500ml

chicken stock 300ml

Method

Step 1

Brown the mince all over in a hot non-stick pan (there should be enough fat released to fry the mince). Add the onions and cook until softened, then add the chilli powder, oregano and garlic powder and cumin. Fry for a few minutes, then tip in the tomato purée, passata and jalapeños. Add the chicken stock, then cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Add the kidney beans and cook for another 15 minutes,§ uncovered. Serve in bowls with cheese, extra jalapeños, soured cream and tortilla chips.
