Tasty Family Chilli Recipe

As you, I am sure that you are very aware that valentine's day is coming up but as a parent, it means that you many not be able to get a babysitter and be able to go out on an actual night out for a meal but this doesn't mean that you can not celebrate. You could actually cook a  meal for your other half something which I love to cook is a chilli you can change the recipe which I am going to share with you today due to the fact I do love pretty hot food but I aware that some people mat not be the same as me

.
I know this may be different to how other people making it due to the fact that I do not fry the mince this is due to ease because when I am cooking sometimes I am juggling a number of things such as looking after Jess and doing other things.

The ingredients which I use are the following:
500g lean minced beef
1 packet of Schwartz Hot Chilli Powder.
1 carton of Cirio chopped tomatoes and basil
1 chilli (optional)
1 tin of Cirio baby plum tomatoes.


The most important part now the method:

1. Shred the mince with a knife and fork make sure its medium pieces
2. Add to a microwaveable tub followed by cover with clingfilm
3. Microwave the mince for 6 minutes on 100 power I have an 850w microwave so you may have to adapt this depending on your wattage
4. While waiting for this to cook chop up the chillis if you are adding them to the mixture.
5. During this time I also put the rice in the rice cooker, however, you could boil this in a pan and do it this way if you're not fortunate to own a rice cooker.
6. Once the 6 minutes are over they are I stir the mince up to make sure that it is fully cooked I also shred the mince again to make sure that there are no major clumps of mince. 
7. This followed by putting the mince on again for another 10 minutes on 100 power.
8. Add the tomatoes both the tin and the cartoon to the mixture along with the chilli mix and chillis should you be using them 
9. Stir in the mixture making sure it is as even as it can be
10. On completion of this, I put it back in the microwave for another 5 minutes 
11. Again I really want to make sure it's as even as it can be so I stir this in again
12. Finally, I finish the chilli off by putting it back in the microwave for another 5 minutes. 

Again you could change the recipe a little bit because you may want to add kidney beans this is not something which we do not do as some of our family do not like them. Obviously, you really do not need to add chilli's you could actually add some of the chillies flakes if you want a little bit of heat but not too much.

What are your plans for Valentine's Day
