L.j's Chili
- 3 lbs of stewing beef 3 cans of red kidney beans (14oz) 2 cans of brown
- beans (14 oz) 1 can of Hunts tomato paste (large) 1 cup of ketchup 2 large
- green peppers 2 large red peppers 2 teaspoons black pepper
- salt to taste 1/2 cup of chili powder 1 cup of mashed potatoes (cooked)
- 1/4 mashed banana 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1 large can tomatoes (quart)
- prefer home canned 1 tablespoon crushed chillis (to suit more or less) 1
- tablespoon black mollases 1 teaspoon Cumin 1 teaspoon Oregano 2 large
- Spanish onions (you have'ta shed tears when slicing these) 3 cans of
- mushrooms (8 oz.cans)
- Cut beef into 1 inch chunks or thereabouts. Let beef soak in a bowl with
- the tomatoes and juice, lemon juice, mushrooms, black pepper, crushed
- chilis and onions over night. Brown the meat in a skillet. In large pot
- throw in the tomatoes and crushed chillis, onions, meat, paste, everything
- except the beans and peppers and slow cook for three hours. Next chop your
- green and red peppers into long slivers or if you prefer diced. Also stir
- in your beans and cook slowly for one more hour. All cooking must not have
- the lid on. With the thick "soupy" ring around the pot; stir back into the
- simmering chili.
- You might like the chili hotter or maybe milder, depends on your taste.
- What ever you do, don't ruin the chili by making it hotter with hot sauces,
- this has a tendency to make the chili into "superficial" body heat not a
- deep solid heat. To accompany the chili try and get your hands on some
- "Agua Dente" (fire water) 80% alcohol (national drink in Colombia). I
- guarantee you will see God!
