Method
Put the rice, salsa, cumin, olive oil and 170 ml of water in a large microwave-safe bowl and stir. Cover with a plate, leaving a small gap for steam, and microwave on full power for 9 minutes.
Stir in the drained black beans and the sweetcorn, cover again and microwave for 2 minutes, until everything is steaming hot. Leave to stand, covered, for 3 minutes so the rice finishes absorbing the water.
Fluff the rice with a fork. Slice the avocado and lay it on top.
Squeeze the lime over the bowl and add coriander or a little grated cheddar if you like.
