This recipe is different to the mainstream Con Carnes. It has a distinctive aroma and an equally impressive taste. This recipe originated from a VERY old mexican cookbook my mum purchased 20 years ago.

This was incredibly tasty. I used ancho chili powder and new mexico chili powder instead of basic chili and it was fabulous.

This was the best chili recipe I have made yet. I have tried 4 different chili recipes trying to find one that my very picky DH approves of, and he loved this. This will be my new go-to chili recipe.

This is great! Very simple to make! I added 3 tbsps of cumin and more chili. -
Very simple to put together and universally lapped up by the whole family. The aromas while cooking were wonderful. I added the extra beans as well, and we topped the chili with a salsa of chopped green onions and coriander leaves. I served this with polenta - a great match. Thanks - now a family favorite.
