  1. 1

    Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and red pepper and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

  2. 2

    Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Turn the heat up to medium-high, add the turkey mince, and cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned all over with no pink remaining. Turkey mince is leaner than beef, so keep it moving to stop it sticking to the pan.

  4. 4

    Stir in the cumin, smoked paprika and chilli powder and cook for 1 minute.

  5. 5

    Add the tomato purée, chopped tomatoes, kidney beans and stock. Stir well and season with salt.

  6. 6

    Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and cook uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring every so often, until thickened.

  7. 7

    Taste and adjust the seasoning before serving over rice.
