Chilli with Three Beans recipe

ingredients

Although called a soup, this dish is so hearty that it is really a complete meal in itself.
3 tbsps vegetable oil
2 medium onions, roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tbsp ground cumin
2 tsps paprika pepper
1 red or green chilli, seeded and chopped
675 g (1 1/2 lbs) minced beef
790 g (1 3/4 lbs) canned tomatoes
90 g (3 oz) tomato puree
1 tsp oregano
1 bay leaf
140 ml (1/4 pint) beer
Salt and pepper
120 g (4 oz) each of canned and drained red kidney beans, white kidney beans, pinto beans and chickpeas.

method

1. Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the onions and cook gently, until soft but not browned.

2. Add the garlic, cumin, paprika and chilli. Cook for 1 minute, before stirring in the beef.

3. Cook the meat until it is lightly browned, breaking it up with a fork, to prevent large lumps forming.

4. Stir in the tomatoes and their juice, the tomato puree, oregano, bay leaf and beer. Season to taste, then cover and simmer for 50 minutes, checking the level of liquid several times during cooking and adding a little water, if necessary

5. Fifteen minutes before the end of the cooking time, stir in the drained beans and chickpeas.
