Instructions
1
- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Place a pan on medium-high heat (no oil).
- Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 1cm chunks.
- Zest and chop half the lime into wedges (double for 4p).
- Trim and thinly slice the scallion.
- Drain and rinse the kidney beans.
2
- Once the pan is hot, add the beef mince and fry until browned, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.
- Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper.
3
- Add the pepper and Mexican style spice mix to the beef mince and fry for 1 min.
- Mix in the Worcester sauce, passata, kidney beans and beef stock.
- Using the back of a spoon, crush half the kidney beans once they're in the pan.
- Bring to the boil, reduce heat to low-medium and simmer until thickened, 7-8 mins. Season to taste with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when it is no longer pink in the middle.
4

5

6
