Stir in the dried spices then add the leeks and peppers and cook, stirring frequently, until they are softening.
  2. Tip in the tomatoes and tomato puree with the cauliflower and 150ml water, and the bouillon. Cover and simmer for 10 mins.

  4. For the mash, tip the beans into a bowl, add the coriander and chilli powder and mash well. Add the potatoes and roughly mash into the beans so it still has a little texture. Pile on top of the filling in the pie dishes and carefully spread over the filling to enclose it.
