My version of chilli, used to be without kidney beans but I do add them now. Frequently requested at parties it is a rich inviting looking chilli. The measurements below are just a guideline, if I have celery in then it goes in the pot, if I don't then it's no big deal. Same with the peppers, I sometimes put one in but today there was a yellow pepper going begging so that went in as well. Again the timing is not a science I am a big believer in slow long cooking so I would put this on about 2pm and serve it about 6pm but today I started a bit late and will cook it for 45 minutes before I remove the lid to reduce the liquid. It will still be cooked but I think the flavour develops better if left to cook slowly.

Ingredients

Directions

Fry the mince off and if you wish strain off any fat or juices that come from the meat. Add all the vegetables, herbs, stock, etc but do not add the treacle at this stage. Bring to a slow bubble and add lid to pan, cook for as long as you desire but stir periodically. About an hour before you want to serve, remove the lid and let the liquid reduce, right at the end add a big dollop of treacle. Serve with rice or jacket potato, whichever tickles your fancy and enjoy.
