Put the chillies, onion, paprika and cumin seeds into the processor, squash in the unpeeled garlic through a garlic crusher, then add the coriander stalks (reserving the leaves) and 2 tablespoons of oil, and whiz until fine. Tip into the pan. Deseed and roughly chop the peppers, drain the chickpeas and black beans, then add to the pan with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper and the passata, stir well and put the lid on.

Check and adjust the seasoning of the chilli, then leave the lid off. Remove the tortillas from the oven into a bowl, cut the lettuce into chunky wedges and add to the bowl. Scoop and dot over curls of avocado. Peel the cucumber into ribbons and finely slice half a chilli, then scatter both over the top. Make a well in the middle of the chilli and tip in the rice, then pop the lid on for the last few minutes to warm the rice through.
