- 2 red capsicums , finely chopped
- 1 long red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped

Directions
In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil and add all of the chopped vegetables and saute gently for a few minutes.
Add spices, salt and pepper and cook until vegetables are softened (around 5 minutes).
Add tomatoes, kidney beans, chickpeas and cook for a couple more minutes.
Add stock and Sticky Balsamic Original. Bring to the boil and then simmer, stirring gently every now and then for at least 20 minutes (the longer it simmers, the better it will be).
Serve with rice, scatter some of the chopped coriander on top, and drizzle a little more Sticky Balsamic Original over the dish.
