Before you start

Pull out a medium frying pan, a small bowl, a sieve & a measuring jug

Get started

Finely dice the onion. Dice the pepper into 2cm chunks
Heat the medium frying pan with 1 tsp olive oil on high heat. Once hot, add the venison, pepper and three-quarters of the onion and cook for 5 mins, breaking up the mince with a wooden spoon, until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper
Finely chop or crush the garlic. Drain and rinse the beans

Simmer simmer

Add the garlic, cumin, hot honey and the half pack of chipotle paste (add less for less heat) and cook for 1 min, until fragrant
Stir the beans, passata, and 100ml water (50ml for 1 person) into the pan and simmer for 5-6 mins, until the sauce has reduced slightly. Season to taste

Make the salsa

Meanwhile, peel the orange (including the pith) and dice into 1cm chunks. Roughly chop the coriander and peanuts. Quarter the lime
In the small bowl, combine the orange, peanuts, remaining onion, half the coriander and the juice of half the lime. Season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper

Plate up

Share the venison stew between bowls, topped with the orange peanut salsa. Scatter with the remaining coriander and garnish with the remaining lime wedges, to finish
