Ingredients
  • 280g beef mince
  • 150g rice
  • 1 can black beans
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 avocado
  • Salsa
  • Fresh coriander
  • Lime
Instructions
  1. 1

    Rinse the rice and cook in 300ml salted water — boil, cover, simmer 12 min, rest 5 min.

  2. 2

    Drain and rinse the black beans. Combine cumin, chilli powder, and smoked paprika.

  3. 3

    Heat oil in a large pan over high heat. Add the beef mince and cook, breaking it up, until deeply browned — 5–6 min. Drain any excess fat.

  4. 4

    Add the spice mix to the beef and stir for 1 min. Add the black beans and a splash of water, cook 2–3 min until warmed through. Season with salt.

  5. 5

    Halve, stone, and dice the avocado. Squeeze over a little lime juice and season with salt to stop it browning.

  6. 6

    Chop the coriander. Cut the lime into wedges.

  7. 7

    Build the bowls: rice base, spiced beef and beans, avocado, a spoonful of salsa, fresh coriander, and a squeeze of lime.
