Drain and rinse the black beans. Tip them into a large bowl with the red onions but don’t mix them in. Halve the chilli and flick out the seeds and white pith for less heat. Finely chop it. Finely chop the coriander leaves and stalks. Peel the clementines and remove as much pith as possible. Break them into segments, then roughly chop them. Add the chilli, coriander and clementines to the beans.
