## Ingredients

- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium (150g) red onion, finely chopped
- 2 red capsicum, seeds removed and flesh cut into 3cm chunks
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- 2 x 400g tin mixed beans (3 bean mix) rinsed and drained
- 1 x 400g tin chopped tomatoes
- 1 apple, grated
- 1 cup water
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- ⅓ cup finely chopped flat leaf parsley
- Sea salt and black pepper

### To Serve

- Greek yoghurt, chilli flakes

### Chunky Croutons

- 4 slices of sourdough bread, thick cut
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

## Method

1. Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat and add extra virgin olive oil, red onion, and capsicum. Cook for 5-6 minutes to soften the onion, then add garlic, and cook for a further minute. Stir through the paprika and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
2. Add mixed beans, tomatoes, apples, water and maple syrup, bring to simmer, season with salt and pepper, and cook on a low simmer for 40 minutes.
3. Make the croutons by roughly tearing or chopping the bread into 3cm chunks, placing them in a bowl, drizzling with extra virgin olive oil, and tossing to coat. Bake in a 180C oven for 8-10 minutes or until toasty. Once toasted, set aside to cool and become crunchy.
4. When the beans are cooked, stir through the chopped parsley. Divide between bowls, top with a big dollop of Greek yoghurt and finish with the crunchy croutons.
