Vegetarian Zucchini Chili guidance

1. To peel the tomatoes, pour boiling water over them; the heat will soften their skin so you will be able to peel them easily with your hands. Chop the tomatoes.
2. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large pot, then add onions. Stir for a minute then add zucchini and red pepper.
3. Just before the onions burn, add garlic and chopped and peeled tomatoes. Add between 1 and 2 cups of water and the bay leaf. Cover the pot.
4. Bring the stew to a boil and add salt and pepper and tomato paste. Uncover the pot to let the simmering water evaporate.
5. When courgettes are nearly cooked through (15-30 min), add beans. As they warm through, add chili flakes, cayenne, paprika and parsley.
6. Take off heat and enjoy with some Tabasco :).
