Method
Step 1
Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based saucepan with a lid and fry the onion, garlic and red chilli until softened. Increase the heat and add the Denny Meat Free Mince, cooking quickly until browned and breaking down any chunks with a wooden spoon.
Step 2
Turn down the heat to low, stir in the tomato puree and cook out for a minute, then add all ground spices (cumin, coriander, cinnamon, smoked paprika and chilli powder), cook out for a further minute (add a splash of water if the spices start to catch the pan).
Step 3
Stir in the kidney beans and diced red pepper.
Step 4
Add the brown sugar and cocoa powder, stir in the passata, salt and freshly ground black pepper, bring to a simmer, cover with a lid and cook over a gentle heat for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mixture is rich and thickened.
Step 5
Stir through the fresh coriander and cook out for a minute uncovered before removing from the heat, adding any extra seasoning if necessary.
Step 6
Serve with rice, guacamole, sour cream and a handful of fresh chopped coriander.
