Super Veggie Chilli Recipe
Servings: 4
Time to create: 1 hour
Ingredients
500 g sweet potatoes (peeled and diced)
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground cinnamon
3 tbsp Olive oil
1 red onion (diced)
2 celery stalks (diced)
1 red peppers (chopped)
2 carrots (diced)
2 cloves of garlic
1 bunch of fresh coriander (30g) - separate the stalks (dice) and leaves.
2 fresh mild chillies
1 x 400g tin of black beans (drained)
1 x 400g tin of pinto beans (drained)
2 x 400 g tins of chopped tomatoes
1 lime
Method
Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6. Place the sweet potato onto a baking tray and sprinkle with a pinch of each of the spices. Add salt and pepper to taste, and drizzle with 1 tbsp of olive oil and then toss to ensure an even coating. Roast for 45 minutes, until softened and golden.
Place 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, celery, carrots, and chopped pepper, stiring regularly. After 5 minutes, add the coriander stalks, chillies and spices. Cook for a further 5-10 minutes, until the vegetables have soften and are starting to caramelised.
Add the beans and tins of tomatoes. Bring the chilli to the boil and then reduce to a medium-low heat. Leave for 25-30 minutes, stiring occasionally, allowing the sauce to thicken.
Add the roasted sweet potato to the dish and stir through the majority of the coriander leaves.
Add a squeeze of lime and sprinkle over the remaining coriander.
