Steph's Chilli

For starters I will share one of my recipes - a hearty chilli:


Ingredients:
2 medium/large onions
1 large carrot
1 red pepper
2 cans of chilli beans (420g)
100g TVP
a little oil
extra chilli powder as required







Method:

• Firstly put the TVP in a heat proof bowl and cover with boiling water
  
• Peel the onions and cut them in half
  
• Heat a little oil in a large saucepan
• Slice the onion one way and then in half the other way
• Add the onion to the saucepan
• Peel the carrot and thinly slice it
• Cut the pepper in to smallish chunks
• Add the carrot and pepper to the onion
  
• Stir the vegetables occasionally until the onions become translucent
• Add the tins of chilli beans and the TVP to the vegetables and stir
• Add chilli powder for an extra kick
  
• Cover the the chilli and simmer for twenty minutes stir every few minutes
• Uncover the chilli and simmer until the chilli reduces

Serve over rice, potatoes, pasta or with naan bread.
