Method

Heat the olive oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Add the peppers and cook for 5 minutes, stirring, until softened and charred. Reduce the heat slightly, add the garlic, cumin seeds and Quorn mince. Fry for 3 minutes, then pour the jar of tomato and chilli pasta sauce. Add 150ml water to the jar, rinse out into the pan and stir in the kidney beans.
Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10-15 minutes or until thick and rich. Stir in the coriander and season to taste.
Divide between plates and serve with cooked rice. Top with a dollop each of soured cream and fresh, ready-made guacamole, if you like.
