Fry the onions, garlic, fresh chili and pepper for 3 minutes, then add the mince and fry for a further 3 minutes or until the onions are turning golden and the mince has lost its red colour, gently stirring occasionally to break up any mince clumps and to avoid sticking..
2. Add the cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, chili flakes and cumin and stir well. Then stir in the flour..
3. Gradually stir in the wine, then add the kidney beans, chopped tomatoes, sugar, tomato purée, oregano and stock cube/pot. Add the water and stir well.
4. Bring to the boil, stirring occasionally, then reduce to a medium simmer and cook for 55-60 minutes. Stir two and three times and add a very little water if, but only if, necessary to prevent sticking. This is designed to be a thick and definitely not runny sauce..
5. Taste and season if required. Stir in the fresh coriander and serve with rice, baked potatoes, tortillas or whatever you fancy, adding a dollop of crème fraîche or soured cream to each portion..
