Chilli Con Carne with Loaded Potato Topping

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Jensen’s crushed garlic
  • 1 onion
  • 1 red capsicum
  • 500g beef mince/ground beef
  • 3 tablespoons Leggo’s tomato paste
  • 800g Riviana crushed tomato
  • 400g  canned Edgel red kidney beans
  • 500 mL Campbell’s SR beef stock
  • 1.5 teaspoon sugar

Chili Spice Mix:

  • 1 – 2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 4 teaspoon paprika powder
  • 5 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1.5 teaspoon cooking salt

*Serves 5 people

Method

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic and onion, cook for 1 minute, then add capsicum and cook for 2 minutes until onion is translucent.
  • Turn heat up to high and add beef. Cook, breaking it up as you go, until mostly browned.
  • Add Chili Spice Mix. Cook until beef is browned all over. (This step helps release extra flavour from the spices).
  • Add remaining ingredients, with 40 mL of water for Quick Cook or 125 mL cups for Slow Cook. Bring to simmer, then adjust heat per step below.

Quick Cook – 20 to 40 minutes, uncovered, on medium low heat so it’s bubbling gently; OR

Slow Cook – 1.5 to 2 hours, covered, on low heat so it’s bubbling very gently.

Adjust salt to taste just before serving.
