Step 1

Dice the onion and red pepper and place in a pan on the stove (or the slow cooker pot directly if using a sear and stew type) with 1 tbsp of oil, add the mince beef and stir through well to separate the meat. Add in the oregano, coriander and spices and cook until the meat is browned. Transfer to the slow cooker.

Step 2

Crush the cloves of garlic and finely dice the chilli pepper - optional if you like some extra heat. Add with the tomato paste to the slow cooker. Sprinkle over the flour, salt, pepper and sugar and stir well to coat the ingredients.

Step 3

Dissolve the stock cubes in the hot water and pour over the meat and vegetables. Add the chopped tomatoes, kidney beans, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaves. Stir well ensuring everything is covered in the liquid.

Step 4

Replace the lid and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours.

Step 5

Once cooked, serve with rice and a sprinkle of chopped coriander.
