HOW-TO
1.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet or frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and fry for 3-4 minutes, or until starting to soften. Add the garlic and red pepper and cook for 5 minutes more.
2.
Once the pepper has started to soften, add the chopped tomatoes, beans, tomato puree and vegetable stock (or water) with a pinch of salt and pepper and stir to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer and lower the heat. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.
3.
Add the grains and stir to combine, adding a little more water if needed. Bring back to a simmer and cook for 3 minutes more.
4.
Serve with the chives and avocado or a big chunk of bread.
