A new favourite for us. Fried off the chorizo 1st and set aside, used the oil to cook an onion and then added a tinned tomato can blitzed with some red pepper. Added some chilli flakes and garlic before adding the beans, used the water from the kidney beans and didn’t add any water. Thickened up…

Delicious and couldn't be easier. I made it per the recipe except that I used kidney beans in chilli sauce because that was what I had in the cupboard. I drained the beans but reserved most of the sauce, diluted it to 100ml and added it to the mix in place of the water.

Surprised how perfect this was for no effort. Started off frying a red onion and added a tin and a half of tomatoes instead of a tomato sauce (no water) and simmered for about half hour just to make it come together. Served with jacket potato, grated cheese and a dollop of yogurt on the side. Lush.
