Prepare a batch of spicy mince, enjoy half with rice now and freeze the rest for a delicious Chilli Beef Cottage Pie later.
Ingredients:
  • 80ml (1/3 cup) vegetable oil
  • 1.4kg lean beef mince
  • 4 brown onions, finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 2 red capsicums, halved, deseeded, cut into 1cm pieces
  • 2 tsp chilli powder
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 5.00 gm ground cumin
  • 2 tsp coriander
  • 90g (1/3 cup) tomato paste
  • 2 x 420g cans red kidney beans, rinsed, drained
  • 2 x 400g cans diced tomatoes
Instructions:
  • In a heavy-based stockpot or large flame-proof casserole dish, heat 1 teaspoon of oil over medium-high heat. Cook one-third of the mince, breaking up any lumps with a wooden spoon, until it changes color, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Repeat twice more with remaining oil and mince in separate batches.
  • In the same pot, over medium-high heat, sauté the onion, garlic, and bell pepper in the remaining oil until the onion is soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in the chili, oregano, cumin, and coriander, and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.
  • Add the minced meat, tomato paste, kidney beans, and tomatoes into the pot and mix well. Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat to medium-low. Let it simmer for 20 minutes until the liquid reduces. Finally, season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
