Ingredients
1 tbsp olive oil
2 large onions, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, crushed
500g lean beef mince
1 tbsp ground cumin
1 tsp Lainey’s Chilli Oil (our extra hot or the original) depending on how hot you like your chilli con carne
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
400g tin chopped tomatoes
250ml fresh beef stock
400g tin red kidney beans or mixed fried beans, drained and rinsed
Add salt , pepper and sugar seasoning to taste
Method
Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over a medium-high heat and add the onions. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring often, until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and fry, stirring, for 2 minutes more until fragrant.
Turn up the heat to high, add the beef to the pan and season well, pressing it down with a wooden spoon and breaking it up so it browns all over. When it’s browned, add cumin, Lainey’s chilli oil and cinnamon. Cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes until fragrant, then add the tomatoes with a pinch of sugar and the beef stock.
Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes until the beef has taken on the flavours of the spices and the sauce is reduced and thick. Add the beans and cook for 5 minutes more, then taste, season and serve with your choice of accompaniments.
