Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C.
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Cook the onions and mince over a high heat for 8-10 mins until well-browned.
- Meanwhile, start the rice. Put it in a medium saucepan and pour over 350ml boiling water. Bring to a boil, cover with a lid and turn down to just simmering. Cook for 15-18 mins, shaking the pan occasionally.
- Add the celery, chopped peppers, kidney beans, spices and tomato purée. Cook for 2 mins.
- Add the vegetable stock and bring to a simmer. Season.
- Set aside 200g of the chilli con carne mixture for lunch the next day.
- Tip the mixture into a baking dish, top with the tortilla chips and grated cheese. Bake for 10-12 mins or until the cheese is golden brown.
- Leave cool for 5 mins. Divide the rice and shredded lettuce between plates and top with the chilli nacho bake.
