Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut potato into bite-sized chunks. • Place potato on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Roast until just tender, 15-20 minutes (it will finish roasting in step 5!).
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the potato between two trays.
• Meanwhile, finely chop brown onion and garlic. • Grate the carrot. Finely chop zucchini. • Drain and rinse butter beans.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook onion, carrot and zucchini, stirring, until softened, 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Stir in butter beans, All-American spice blend and BBQ sauce. Add passata and a splash of water and cook, stirring, until well combined. • Season to taste, reduce heat to medium and simmer until thickened, 3-4 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, then add baby spinach leaves, stirring, until just wilted, 1 minute.
• Remove potato from oven. Sprinkle with shredded Cheddar cheese. • Roast until potato is tender and cheese is melted, a further 5 minutes.
• Divide smokey bean chilli and cheesy roast potato between plates. • Serve with light sour cream. Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The All-American spice blend and BBQ sauce bring a smoky, hearty depth, though some found the BBQ sauce a touch too sweet. A few felt the chilli leaned tomato-heavy; reducing the BBQ sauce or adding chilli flakes and cumin helped balance the flavour.
- Ease of prep: Most found this a straightforward, quick meal to put together, with recipe timing praised as reliable.
- Suggestions: Some felt the dish needed something crunchy alongside, like tortilla chips or a slaw, and several wished for more potato to balance the chilli ratio. Adding extra cheese to the potatoes and a pinch of chilli flakes or cumin to the chilli were popular ways to lift the dish.
- Leftovers: The chilli kept well and made a satisfying lunch the next day.
- Portions: Most found it a very filling, substantial meal, though several felt the potato portion could be increased relative to the chilli.
