This dish is mostly raw (apart from the pureed tomato) and because of this easy to prepare. We also like this dish served on a bed of rice for an alternative to the corn chips. If you prefer the beans warm you can add the beans into the sauce whole in the last 10 minutes of cooking.

- 2 small red chillies – washed, sliced finely
