Instructions

  1. • Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
    • Cut carrot and courgette into bite-sized chunks.
    • Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with
    olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat.
    Spread out evenly, then roast until tender,
    20-25 minutes.
    TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the veggies
    between two trays.
  2. • Meanwhile, finely chop garlic.
    • In a medium saucepan, heat the
    butter with a dash of olive oil over medium
    heat. Cook half the garlic until fragrant,
    1-2 minutes.
    • Add the water (for the rice) and a generous
    pinch of salt and bring to the boil.
    • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and
    reduce the heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes,
    then remove from heat. Keep covered until rice is
    tender and water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
    TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so
    don't peek!
  3. • While the rice is cooking, finely chop onion.
    Roughly chop cucumber and radish. Drain and
    rinse black beans.
    • In a medium bowl, combine cucumber, radish
    and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive
    oil. Toss to combine. Season to taste and set
    aside.
  4. • When the veggies have 5 minutes remaining,
    heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat
    with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook onion until
    tender, 4-5 minutes.
    • SPICY! This spice blend is hot! Add less if you're
    sensitive to heat. Add Mexican Fiesta spice
    blend, tomato paste and remaining garlic and
    cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
    • Reduce heat to medium. Stir in vegetable stock
    powder, water (for the sauce) and black beans
    and cook until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes.
  5. • Stir roasted veggies through the chilli. Season
    with salt and pepper.
  6. • Divide garlic rice between bowls. Top with black
    bean and roast veggie chilli, cucumber salsa and
    corn chips.
    • Dollop with sour cream. Tear over
    coriander to serve. Enjoy!
