METHOD

1

Brown the mushrooms

Cook the diced mushrooms in oil over high heat for ten minutes until very dry — concentrated flavour.

2

Build the base

Add onion to the pan. Soften for five minutes. Add garlic, tomato puree and paprika and stir for two minutes.

3

Simmer

Add all three drained bean cans and 300ml water. Simmer for twenty-five minutes.

4

Finish dark

Stir in chocolate just before serving — it should melt into a glossy depth without sweetening.

VEG.ARMY TIP

Top with quick-pickled jalapeno and sliced avocado for the full diner experience.
