Add the minced garlic, tomato puree and spices and fry for another 2 minutes, stirring to avoid burning. 04. Add the plum tomatoes and roughly chop up with a spoon. 05. Simmer for 20 - 25 minutes until the sauce thickens and has intensified in flavour. If you feel it’s getting too thick, add a splash of water. 06.

Serves 5 adults Prep >10mins Cooks 20-30mins Ingredients: – 1 large onions finely diced – 2 garlic cloves, minced – 1tbsp tomato puree – 1 heaped tsp chipotle flakes (or smoked paprika if you are cooking for kids) – 2 tsp ground cumin – 1 tsp ground coriander – Olive Oil – 2 tins mixed beans in mild chili sauce – 1 tin black beans, drained and rinsed – 1 tin cherry tomatoes (in the summer I like to roast my own tomatoes instead. Simply roast 300g cherry tomatoes, seasoned with salt and pepper and drizzled with olive oil at 190˚C for 20-30 mins until starting to char) – Salt and pepper To serve: Brown rice, grated cheddar, spring onions, avocado, coriander, toast, fried egg, boiled egg... Method: 1. Heat about 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a saucepan and fry the onions for five minutes or so, until they start to soften and go transluscent. Add the garlic and fry for a further 2-3 minutes. 2. Add the spices and tomato puree and fry for a further 2 minutes until nice and fragrant.  3. Add your cherry tomatoes and simmer for 10 minutes until they start to reduce down.  4. Add the beans and cook for 15-20 minutes on a medium heat.  5. Season with salt and pepper. Done! This is one of those dishes that tastes better the next day! So delicious. 

01. Pre-heat the oven to 190C. 02. Rinse the rice and place in a large saucepan alongside the ginger & coriander. Top with the bone broth or water. 03. Bring to a boil then place on a low heat with the lid on and simmer for at least 45 minutes. Make sure you check it often & give it a stir to ensure the rice doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan. If the soup gets too thick top it up with a little water. You are looking for a thin porridge consistency. 04. While the soup is simmering wrap your tofu into a folded, clean tea towel and give it a good squeeze to remove any excess moisture. Cut into 1cm cubes and place in a bowl. Add the soy sauce, sriracha + sesame oil and coat the tofu evenly. Place on a baking tray (make sure the tofu is in one layer as otherwise it won’t cook evenly) and place in the oven for 30 minutes or until browned and crispy on the outside. 05. Blanche your broccoli in simmering salted water for 5 minutes until tender but not soft 06. Fry the minced garlic + ginger in the oil until it starts going crunchy and brown (but make sure it doesn’t go black). Then immediately remove from the heat. 07. Toss the broccoli with the crispy garlic/ginger and drizzle with soy sauce. 08. Remove the ginger chunks + coriander from the soup. Discard the ginger & coriander. 09. Assemble. Pour the soup in bowls and season with soy sauce. Top with the tofu & broccoli & garnish with sesame seeds & spring onions. Drizzle with a little sesame oil. Done.
