To make chilli, heat oil in a pan and fry onion for 5 mins until soft. Add spices; fry for 1 min. Stir in beef and cook for a few mins. Add tomato purée, stock and cinnamon. Give it a stir, bring to the boil, then simmer for 15-20 mins until very little liquid is left. Add beans 5 mins before the end of cooking. Check seasoning and cool.

step 3
Meanwhile, cook the potato in boiling water until tender. Drain, mash with soured cream and seasoning, then stir through chives. Spoon 1-2 tsp of chilli mix into the pastry cases and top with a tsp of mash. Ruffle mash with a fork; return to the oven for 15 mins or until golden.
