Instructions

Step 1

Put the chillies, peeled and halved red onion, paprika, and cumin seeds into the processor. Squash in the unpeeled garlic through a garlic crusher, then add the coriander stalks (reserving the leaves) and 2 tablespoons of oil, and whizz until fine.

Step 2

• Tip into the pan, then add the deseeded and roughly chopped peppers, drained chickpeas, and black beans, a pinch of salt and pepper, and the passata. Stir well and put the lid on.

Step 3

Fold the tortillas in half, slice into 0.5cm strips, sprinkle on a baking tray, and pop in the oven until golden and crisp.

Step 4

Make a well in the middle of the chilli and tip in the rice, then pop the lid on for the last few minutes to warm the rice through. Check and adjust the seasoning of the chilli.

Step 5

Peel and half a peeled avocado, the yogurt, and the juice from 2 limes into a jug and whizz with a stick blender until silky.

Step 6

• Remove the tortillas from the oven into a bowl, cut the lettuce into chunky wedges, and add to the bowl. Scoop and dot over curls of avocado, peel the cucumber into ribbons, and finely slice half a chilli, then scatter both over the top.

Step 7

Make a well in the middle of the chilli and tip in the rice, then pop the lid on for the last few minutes to warm the rice through.

Step 8

• Pour the dressing over the salad, pick over the remaining coriander leaves, finely slice the remaining chilli, and sprinkle over the top along with the halved cherry tomatoes, then toss everything together.

Step 9

• Serve with dollops of yogurt.
