    CHEF STEF CHILI


    Source of Recipe


    The Straits Cafe

    List of Ingredients




    1-1/2 lbs Ground beef
    1/2 Onion, sliced into large chunks
    1 Green pepper, diced
    1 15 oz can Tomato sauce
    1 15 oz can Diced or stewed tomatoes
    1 15 oz can Kidney beans
    1 15 oz can Chili beans
    1 Tbs Chili powder
    dash Cayenne pepper
    1 tsp Black ground pepper
    2 Tbs Cinnamon
    1 tsp Garam masala
    dash Chinese hot chili oil
    3 Tbs Honey (optional)

    Recipe



    In a large skillet, brown the ground beef. Drain fat. With slotted spoon, scoop the beef and onions into a 5 qt. crockpot.

    Add the onion chunks, diced green pepper, tomato sauce, diced or stewed tomatoes and both varieties of canned beans. Mix until well blended.

    Add the chili powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, cinnamon and garam masala next with just a dash of chili oil. Adjust the measures to suit your taste... and tolerance. Mix well again.

    Turn the crockpot on 'low' and simmer for at least 4 hours. (Chef Stef will usually simmer his chili overnight in a crock pot.) During the last hour of cooking, before serving, add the optional honey and continue cooking.

    Serve in bowls, or 'Cincinnati' style as a topping for spaghetti. Either way, you can also sprinkle grated cheese on top, too, as a garnish.

    Serve 4-6.
