Ingredients

2 tbsp rapeseed oil

2 onions (about 340g), chopped

500g 5%-fat steak mince

2 bell peppers, deseeded and finely chopped

3 garlic cloves, chopped

1 tbsp thyme leaves

2 tbsp smoked paprika

400g can chopped tomatoes

800ml hot vegetable stock, made with 2 tsp bouillon powder

Directions

Heat the oil in a large lidded pan over a medium heat and fry the onions for 10 mins, stirring frequently until golden. Add the mince, breaking apart any lumps with a wooden spoon. Stir in the peppers and cook for 5 mins.

Add the garlic, thyme and paprika, and stir well. Tip in the tomatoes, tomato purée and stock, and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 10 mins.
