Method

step 1
Add the pineapple chunks (1 tin), white wine vinegar (1 tbsp), red chilli (1) and sugar (1 tsp) to a food processor and pulse until combined but still with some texture. Season to taste and set aside.
step 2
Start the butterbean rougaille. Heat the vegetable oil (1 tbsp) in a wok or large frying pan over a medium heat. Cook the onion (1) for 4-5 minutes until beginning to soften, season, then stir in the garlic paste (1 tsp) and ginger paste (1 tsp) and cook for another minute.
step 3
Add in the paprika (1 tbsp) and thyme (2 sprigs), along with the tomatoes (2 tins) and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and cook, stirring occasionally until the mixture thickens slightly, about 15 minutes.
step 4
Meanwhile, cook the cauliflower popcorn (2 packs) according to pack instructions.
step 5
Stir in the butter beans (2 tins), red chilli (1) and sugar (1 tsp) into the tomato sauce then season to taste. Add a dash of water if the mixture is too thick.
step 6
Prepare the tarka dal (2 packs) and roti (1) according to pack instructions.
step 7
Remove tomato sauce from the heat and stir in the coriander (2 tbsp).
step 8
Serve the cauliflower popcorn on top of the butterbeans, before adding the tarka dal and pineapple pickles. Finish with the rotis on the side.
