make | with your leftover chipotle paste: ULTIMATE chilli sans carne

So, if you've got any of that awesome chipotle chilli paste leftover, we're going to show you what you need to make with it.  This, right here, is the ULTIMATE chilli recipe.  Chilli, sans carne (aka, without meat).  You are going to love it.

We made this one for a dinner party & forgot to take a photo of the finished product.  But it tastes so good we figured that didn't even matter.

Beans are featuring a lot right now... I guess it's because it's getting cold out, and we all like to have something filling & warming (Mum's favourite word) in our bellies.

Beans are super good for you too, counting towards your five a day, full of protein & cheap!

To the recipe!

Enjoy today!!

ULTIMATE Chilli Sans Carne 
Serves 6 generously 

500g 10 bean mix, soaked overnight in cold water
2 onions, chopped 
4 cloves smoked garlic (absolutely amazing flavour!) crushed 
1/2 100g jar Discovery Chipotle Chilli paste 
2 tsp smoked paprika 
1 tsp ground cinnamon 
1 tsp cumin seeds 
3 x 400g cans chopped tomatoes / plum tomatoes, broken down a little with the wooden spoon as you put them in the pan.  
2 red, 2 yellow peppers, chopped into chunks 
4 sprigs rosemary 
750ml vegetable stock

  • Drain your beans, put them in a pan with some fresh water and bring them to the boil.  Boil quickly for 10 minutes, then simmer for 1 hour.  Top up with boiling water from your kettle if you need to.  

  • In another pan, spritz the surface with a little olive oil and fry off your onion and garlic for 5 minutes.

  • Add the wonder ingredient (chipotle chilli paste), cinnamon, cumin and paprika and cook for another couple of minutes.  

  • Stir in the tomatoes, peppers, rosemary and stock and bring to the boil.  

  • Drain your beans and add them to the pan.  Partially cover with a lid and simmer for about an hour more so it gets all thick and yummy and the beans get softer.  Yummy!!! 

  • Serve with brown rice, some guacamole, tomato salsa, maybe a little bit of natural yoghurt or coleslaw, and you are good to go!
