- 400g tin black-eyed beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 tsp ground cumin

Instructions
Put the peppers, red onion and garlic in a bowl. Add the oil and mix well.
Heat a large frying pan until hot. Add the vegetable mixture and cook for 3–4 minutes before stirring. Add the beans and cook for 2–3 minutes.
Stir in the cumin, paprika and oregano and cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat, scatter over the coriander and season well.
