Chili con carne Recipe

Chili is a great heart-warmer on those cool evenings sitting around the camp fire and can be easily prepared and cooked in a single pan on your heat-source of choice (stove, bbq etc).

You should either vacuum-pack your mince and keep it cool in an esky, or have access to a refrigerator to keep it from going off.

What you will need:

• An onion and some garlic
• 2 teaspoons of cumin
• 1 teaspoon of paprika
• Chilli-powder to taste (0.5 – 2 teaspoons)
• 1 Jar of tomato based pasta sauce
• 1 can of red kidney beans
• 500g beef mince

How to cook it:

1. Soften the onion and garlic in a pan
2. Add in the dry spices
3. Add the mince and fry until cooked
4. Add the pasta sauce and kidney beans
5. Sit back and let it simmer for half an hour, remembering to stir every once in a while

Serve with a couple of buttered crusty rolls and enjoy!
