Who knew making veggie chilli from scratch could be so easy? Complete with DIY tortilla chips - serve them straight from the oven while they're still warm - a treat for scooping up the saucy goodness and all the toppings.
1
carrot
2 clove
garlic
1 tin
black beans
1 tin
sweetcorn
1 tin
diced tomatoes with garlic & onion
1 sachet
vegetable stock powder
4
mini flour tortillas
(Contains: Gluten, Soy, Wheat; May be present: Milk, Soy.)
1 bag
coriander
1 packet
Light Sour Cream
(Contains: Milk;)
1 sachet
Mexican Fiesta spice blend
1 packet
Cheddar cheese
(Contains: Milk;)
1
olive oil
1 tsp
brown sugar
2 tbs
hot water
40 g
butter
(Contains: Milk;)

⢠Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. ⢠Finely chop carrot and garlic. ⢠Drain and rinse black beans. Drain sweetcorn.

⢠In a large saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook carrot and corn, stirring, until softened, 5-7 minutes. ⢠SPICY! You may find the spice blend hot. Add less if you're sensitive to heat. Add Mexican Fiesta spice blend and garlic. Cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes

⢠Add diced tomatoes with garlic & onion, black beans, vegetable stock powder, the brown sugar and the hot water (2 tbs for 2 people / 1/4 cup for 4 people). Stir to combine. ⢠Bring to the boil then reduce heat to medium and simmer until slightly thickened, 10-15 minutes. ⢠Stir in the butter. Season with salt and pepper.
TIP: Butter helps balance the acidity of the tomatoes!

⢠While the chilli is simmering, cut mini flour tortillas (see ingredients) into wedges. ⢠Place tortilla chips on a lined oven tray. Drizzle (or spray) with olive oil. Season, then arrange in a single layer. ⢠When the chilli has 10 minutes remaining, bake the chips until golden, 6-8 minutes.
TIP: If your oven tray is getting crowded, spread the tortilla chips out over two oven trays.

⢠Meanwhile, roughly chop coriander.

⢠Divide Mexican bean and veggie chilli between bowls. ⢠Sprinkle with shredded Cheddar cheese and coriander. ⢠Top with a dollop of light sour cream. Serve with baked tortilla chips. Enjoy!
