Chilli Con Carne

Be aware that this chilli is a very hot one. You can make it less hot by leaving out the hot pepper sauce and adding less chilli powder and less chilli peppers.

We make this in advance and freeze it in meal-sized blocks.

Serves 6

500g minced beef
1 onion, chopped
300ml water
1 green pepper, seeded and diced
2-5 chillies, seeded and diced
400g can of chopped tomatoes
400g can of red kidney beans
1 tsp garlic granules
1 tbsp (this is not a typo - I really do mean a tablespoon) chilli powder
1 tsp hot pepper sauce
1 tsp black pepper
¼ tsp cumin

Dry-fry the minced beef with the onion. Drain off any excess fat. Add the green pepper and chilli peppers. Cook for about 5 mins. Add the other ingredients, bring to the boil and simmer for about 30 minutes.

Serve with rice.
