Black Bean Soup with Chipotle Chillies

This slow cooker black bean soup is a deeply comforting vegetarian dish that relies on the slow-release flavours of smoky chipotle chillies and earthy cumin. Using dried black beans provides a far superior texture and a rich, velvety broth that develops beautifully over several hours of gentle cooking. It is a vibrant, colourful meal that balances the heat of the chillies with a refreshing zing of lime juice and a cooling finish of yoghurt.

Deeply nutritious and high in fibre, this healthy homemade soup is perfect for a midweek family dinner or batch cooking for the week ahead. Serve it in generous bowls topped with fresh plum tomatoes and coriander for a bright, seasonal finish. It is a satisfying, low-fat option that brings an authentic taste of Mexican-inspired cuisine to your kitchen with minimal effort.
