Chilli beef Con Carne was on the menu today, I had also put in a selection of salad to give it the yummy factor. You can too, and don’t forget to be generous with the coriander and chilli!

Method:

1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan and cook the onions with the garlic, chilli, spices and tomato puree for 5- 10 minutes. 
2. Add the mince and cook over a high heat, stirring until all the meat changes colour and there are no lumps, bubble until the meat begins to catch. 
3. Add the tinned tomatoes bring to the boil and leave to cook down for about 5 minutes.
