Ingredients

• 250g lean beef mince
• 200g rice
• 1 tin of black beans (240g drained weight)
• 1 avocado
• 1 unwaxed lime
• 100g sweetcorn (tinned)
• 1 onion
• 1 clove of garlic
• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp chilli flakes

Method

You’ll need: frying pan · chopping board · knife

1. Cook the rice for 15–20 min and, while it's still warm, mix it with lime juice and chopped coriander. Leave to stand briefly so it takes on the flavour.
2. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and soften the onion and garlic until translucent. Add the beef mince and fry until browned and crumbly.
3. Stir in the cumin, smoked paprika, chilli flakes, salt and pepper. Add the black beans and sweetcorn and heat everything through together briefly.
4. Mash the avocado and mix it with lime juice, salt and a little coriander into a quick guacamole. Add a little pepper to taste.
5. Have the soured cream ready and roughly chop the remaining coriander. That way everything is ready for serving.
6. Divide the coriander and lime rice between bowls, top with the mince and bean mixture and finish with guacamole, soured cream and coriander.

Good to know

A bowl like this is uncomplicated and still really well rounded. Warm, fresh, creamy and with enough substance for a relaxed dinner.

Swaps

Beef mince → chicken mince (similar protein content); soured cream → Greek yoghurt (also provides protein, similarly creamy); rice → quinoa (also provides fibre and protein); sweetcorn → diced pepper (provides vitamin C, adds crunch).

Allergens

Contains milk (soured cream). For children, it's best to use fewer chilli flakes. In pregnancy, make sure the mince is cooked right through and use only fresh, perfectly good avocado and herbs.
