Batch Cook Gochujang Chilli

We’ve teamed up with Sainsbury’s to bring you low-cost, feel-good recipes. Easy, tasty and stress-free. Get your ingredients delivered by Sainsbury’s in just a few taps. Meet your next batch cook. Make a large batch of our gochujang chilli at the weekend and feed yourself all week! We love it served with rice, a jacket potato, paired with wholegrains or layered into a wrap. Our speedier chilli uses the intense flavours of gochujang (Korean red chilli paste) to add depth and richness, without keeping you by the stove for ages. The addition of meaty chestnut mushrooms add a delicious touch of umami, while plant protein powerhouses butter beans and red kidney beans keep you nourished and satisfied. To keep this vegan swap the honey for sugar or maple syrup (or omit).

Ingredients

onion 1 (chopped)
garlic cloves 2 (chopped)
chestnut mushrooms 200 g (grated)
ground cumin 2 tsp
smoked paprika 2 tsp
gochujang 1 tbsp
tomato purée 4 tbsp
vegetable stock cube 1
butter beans 800 g (drained)
red kidney beans 400 g (drained)
chopped tomatoes 400 g
honey 1 tsp
soy sauce to taste
fresh coriander 1 handful (chopped)

Method

Cook the chilli

Chop the onion and garlic cloves. Grate the chestnut mushrooms.
Heat a splash of oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes, then stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Stir in the grated mushrooms with a pinch of salt and cook them out for 5 minutes until the moisture evaporates. It will seem like a lot of mushrooms but don't worry, they shrink down as they cook.
Add the ground cumin, smoked paprika, gochujang and tomato purée, cook on a medium high heat for 4 minutes. As it cooks the tomato purée should turn a darker red in colour, which helps add delicious flavour.
Make up the vegetable stock cube with 100ml boiling water per serving (400ml for a serves 4, 200ml for a serves 2).
Add the drained butter beans, red kidney beans, chopped tomatoes and honey. Simmer over a medium heat for 12 - 15 minutes.
Adjust the seasoning to taste, we love to use soy sauce for this which pairs well with the gochujang.
