Ella Woodward's black and kidney bean chilli recipe
This is one of the simplest and most nourishing recipes around. It only takes 10 minutes to put together and it’s wonderfully filling and comforting. It’s one of my go-to meals all winter.
It’s a great dish to make if you’re feeding lots of people too as it’s no more complicated to make for twelve then it is for two. It requires almost no chopping, so you won’t be in the kitchen for hours!
While you're cooking the chilli, boil brown rice to serve it over.
Top tip:
Make extra batches of this and freeze them as it makes a delicious, filling meal when you don’t have time to prepare anything.
