  I really like this - think I would add less water next time. It took along time to reduce to the prefered consistancy. Had the left overs with a jacket potatoe the next day for lunch.

  A really delicious recipe, full of flavour and very simple to make. Took on board the comment about adding less water and it worked really well. This recipe has a little heat but next time, I'll be adding more "punch". One to make again.

  absolutely delicious. i only added one can of water though, and simmered it for around an hour. great dish to cook for friends as you can just chuck it all in one pot and leave it to simmer while u chat and drink wine!

  I really love this recipe but I think I may have done something wrong! I followed the recipe and double checked everything but it did not thicken too well and it was more like a thick soup! Not sure if any suggestions can be given as to what I did wrong! It was lovely though!

  Loved this recipe, had to use fresh chilli though as had no chilli powder, but worked a treat, I also reduced the amount of water as others recommended and had no problems

  I really loved this recipe too, I reduced the amount of water and left the lid off at the end so it thickend up nicely, don't really like the cannellini beans, so next time I would use red kidney beans, instaed, also I think I will add more chilli to give it a bit of a kick, I served it with Jacket Potato, but will try rice next time.

  I added less water as suggested, and had to reduce the sauce for longer, but once it had thickened the sauce was delicious. I also froze half and it tasted even better once it had been reheated and I had added more chilli. As I like a real spicy kick, and the sour cream and avocado make the sauce milder.

  Made this today for myself hubby and 4 kids (11,10,10 and 4) it went down really well. Served it stuffed in pitta bread with tortilla chips and grated cheese. didnt add much water as sugested which was a really good idea as there was enough sauce without needing to add. chorizo was a really nice addition. i added kidney and pinto beans instead. will definatly be making it again.

  Really tasty. I made it with chicken breasts insteasd and it was delicious. Would possibly use a little less chorizo as it was quite salty. Definately recommended

  Really nice. Didn't add any water and it didn't need it. Also put the chorizo in with the onions so that they cooked in the flavoured oil that was released. Made for 8 people and everyone loved it!

  Really tasty. I added one can of water, unfortunately the sauce didn't thicken so next time I won't add any! Still very enjoyable.

  Really tasty mid week meal, used about 3/4 can of water and thickened with a little cornflour at the end of cooking time. Will be making this again.

  Made this for a dinner party of 4 and there seemed to be loads as I used 14 chicken thighs and added 2 tins of chop toms instead of the plum ones but the whole lot went with great comments. Will do this one again and again
