EASY FOOD tip
This chilli is perfect to make in a large batch, because the leftovers actually taste even better the next day once the flavours have had more time to blend. For a spicier kick, add one deseeded, chopped chilli pepper and cook it with the spices in Step 2 just until it becomes fragrant.
100g quinoa, soaked in cold water for 10 minutes 2 x 400g tins of chopped tomatoes 1 x 400g tin of red kidney beans, drained and rinsed 1 Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium-low heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook for five minutes. 2 Add the chilli powder, cumin and paprika and cook for a minute, just until it becomes fragrant. 3 Add the squash, aubergine, quinoa and tomatoes.
