Chilli con carne has always been one of my favourite weekend dinners- we have it with homemade guacamole (which tastes SO much better than shop bought), rice, an handful of tortilla chips and cheese melted over the top. Just love it!

Hot ‘n’ smoky chilli con carne
Servings: 4
A delicious deep and rich chilli which uses coffee to add an extra smoky, dark element. Syn-free
250mlfreshly brewed strong coffeeor 1 tbsp of instant coffee if you don't have fresh
2tbspsweetener
1beef stock cube
salt and pepper
handful chopped coriander
Instructions
Heat the low calorie cooking spray in a large pan over low heat and fry the onion until softened, about 10min. Add the meat, turn up the heat and brown all over, about 5min.
Stir through the garlic, chillies, cumin, paprika and bay leaf and fry for a further 1min. Add the tomato purée, tomatoes, beans, coffee, soy sauce, sweetener and crumbled stock cube. Bring to the boil, then turn down to simmer for 20-25min, until liquid has reduced and mixture has thickened.
Once tender, season to taste, remove bay leaf and stir through most of the coriander. Serve with the remaining coriander, and grated Cheddar cheese, if you haven’t yet used your HEA for the day.
Notes
I think this is extra good if it has had a lovely long cooking time- so if you have the time, Once all the ingredients are added, pop into the oven at about 160c and allow to slow cook for a couple of hours. Even better, make it in the slow cooker!
