I hope you are doing well. Today, i am sharing slow cooker chilli con carne recipe with you guys. So. without wasting any move toward the ingredients..
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 2 onions
- 6 cloves garlic or 6 tsp minced garlic
- 2 celery sticks chopped
- 1kg beef mince
- 1-2 tsp chilli powder depending on personal preference ( I use 1)
- Small pinch cayenne pepper
- 2 tbsp oregano
- 2 cans chopped tomatoes
- 4 tbsp tomato paste
- 2 tsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- ½ cup water
- Salt and pepper
- 2 cans red kidney beans
Method:
First i brown my mince, you don’t have to, it’s personal preference.
BROWNING MINCE METHOD:
1. Heat oil in pan, add onion, garlic and celery. Stir over heat for 5 minutes or until softened.
2. Add the beef mince, cook for 5 minutes until brown.
3. Add chilli, cayenne and oregano, stir well.
4. Mix in the tomatoes, tomato paste, water, sugar, vinegar, salt and pepper and kidney beans.
5. Transfer to Slow Cooker and simmer on Low for at least 2 hours or HIGH for at least one hour or more. Time depend on your Slow Cooker and may very so keep an eye on it for your first time and adjust as required.
NON BROWNING MINCE METHOD:
1. If you don’t want to brown the meat first, just mix all the ingredients into a bowl or use the slow cooker bowl and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours. Time depend on your slow cooker and may very so keep an eye on it for your first time and adjust as required. Maybe get a wooden spoon to get the lumps out of the meat and stir every hr, unless you like the lumps then leave as is.
Serve on Jacket potatoes, with grated cheese and sour cream. Or over rice. Or on corn chips with grated cheese and sour cream. Or layer in the slow cooker as a lasagna with grated cheese and sour cream mixed together used as the cheese type sauce and use dry lasagna sheets.
Mixture can be doubled to make enough for large families or to make a couple of different meals. Thanks for reading the slow cooker chilli corn crane recipe.
