Servings 6 people

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 small red chilli, sliced (optional, for extra heat)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 red or yellow bell peppers, diced
  • 1 medium courgette (zucchini), cubed
  • 1 small sweet potato, peeled and cubed
  • These two x 400g tins chopped tomatoes
  • 400g x 2 tins mixed beans (kidney, black beans, pinto), drained and rinsed
  • Coarse sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 small bunch fresh coriander, chopped roughly
  • Lime wedges, to serve

Instructions
 

  • Soften the Aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt, and cook until softened. Add the garlic and fresh chilli, if using, and cook for another minute.
  • Build the Base Flavour: Add the cumin, smoked paprika and dried oregano, allowing them to toast lightly for about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, an additional minute, to develop a richer, deeper flavor. Right here is the base of your Jamie Oliver Veggie Chilli Recipe.
  • Add the Veg & Toms: Add your diced peppers, courgette and sweet potato, stirring to coat in the spiced mixture. Add the chopped tomatoes, plus a splash of water. Simmer and let it bubble gently away for 10-15 minutes.
