My rice-cooker is certainly seeing some action these days. Last Friday’s dinner of choice was a good old chilli. I’m sure that most of you out there are more than capable of making a chilli but I thought I would share my recipe with you anyway, just because it was so darn tasty. Also it’s the perfect meal for those of you hosting Super Bowl parties. It tastes great over nachos, fries or in a tortilla bowl and topped with cheese.
Ingredients
600g of minced beef
1 onion
5 cloves of garlic
1 can of kidney beans
1 can full of water
1 beef stock cube.
3 peppers (1 red, 1 green, 1 yellow)
300ml of salsa (you could also use a can of tomatoes)
2 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning (iherb or foreign food mart)
2 tablespoons of Mexican seasoning (iherb or foreign food mart)
Directions
Roughly chop the onion, peppers and garlic and throw it into your rice cooker bowl. Break up the mince and add it too along with all the other ingredients. Put the rice-cooker on for 2-3 cycles until half of the liquid has evaporated and the vegetables, meat, and beans have cooked. You can add more spices at this point if it’s not hot enough for you. Serve on its own or over nachos, smothered with cheese and a blob of sour cream. Voilà a very easy chilli.
