Method

Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large pan and fry the onion for 5-7 mins over a high heat, stirring regularly, until softened and starting to colour. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min. Tip in the beef and cook, stirring and breaking it up every so often, until browned all over. Add the chilli paste and tomato purée and cook for 1 min, then tip in the chopped tomatoes. Half fill the tin with water and add to the pan, then bring to the boil and simmer for 20 mins.
Meanwhile, quarter the cherry tomatoes and combine them in a small bowl with the spring onions and coriander. Season to taste and set aside. Slice the avocado, squeeze over the lime and set aside.
Heat 1 tsp oil in a medium frying pan over a high heat and cook the peppers for 3-4 mins until the liquid evaporates and the peppers soften. Add the black beans and heat together. Microwave 3 portions of rice to pack instructions, then stir through the warm beans and peppers.
Divide the rice between 6 bowls, then add the chilli, salsa and avocado. Serve with soured cream, if you like, and scatter with the coriander leaves to garnish.
