1 tbsp olive oil
1 yellow or orange pepper , deseeded and chopped
2 garlic cloves , finely grated
1 tsp cumin seeds
½ tsp chilli flakes
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp ground coriander

Steps:

Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and bake the potatoes for 50 mins-1 hr, or until tender.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and fry the pepper and garlic for a few minutes. Stir in the cumin seeds, chilli flakes and spices, then tip in the tomatoes, bouillon powder and beans. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 15 mins, or until reduced to a thick sauce.
