Ingredients

  • 270g black beans
  • 255g basmati rice
  • 80g red pepper
  • 80g peas
  • 80g onion
  • 150g chopped tomatoes
  • 6g garlic
  • 5g ginger
  • 1 tsp each cumin, turmeric & garam masala
  • 30g single cream
  • 20g cashews
  • fresh coriander

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the peppers and peas, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the basmati rice, then simmer in 2 parts water for 10-12 minutes, cover and steam off the heat for 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Warm the black beans in a pan with a splash of water and the seasoning, lightly crushing a few to thicken.

  4. 4

    Soften the onion for 5 minutes, add garlic, ginger and spices for 1 minute, then pour in the tomatoes and simmer for 10 minutes into a thick masala.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the peppers and peas for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: basmati rice first, then the veg and black bean, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh coriander.

  7. 7

    Bulking upgrade: add the single cream, cashews for extra energy-dense calories.
