Chilli Con Carne is full of flavour and a great recipe to have on hand. This is a regular in my household. Once you have everything on ready it is quite simple to put together. This recipe is packed full of goodness with lots of veggies. I am sure the whole family will enjoy it. You can also tame it down for the kids with less chilli.

- 1 cup Beef Stock
- 5 tsp ground Cumin
- 3 tsp dried Oregano
- 1 1/2 tsp Salt

Method

browned. Add onions, garlic, and chilli to saucepan and cook for a further 2 minutes.
2. Add all other ingredients, and stir.
3. Bring to boil, and reduce heat to simmer for 45 minutes with lid on.
4. Remove lid, and simmer for a further 10 to 15 minutes to reduce mixture.

·         ¼ tsp  Cayenne Pepper
·         ¼ ground Allspice
