step 1

Tip the spices into a large pan and warm for a few seconds to toast them. Add the mince and garlic, and stir, breaking down the beef as it browns. Pour in the tomatoes and a can of water, crumble in the stock cube, then stir in the tomato purée, peppers and coriander stalks.
step 2

Cover the pan and cook for 15 mins. Stir in the black beans and their juice, and cook for 10 mins more until everything is tender. Meanwhile, heat the rice following pack instructions and toss the salad ingredients together. Stir the coriander leaves into the chilli and serve.
