Quick and Easy Lamb Chilli

A take on a traditional chilli, the 'Carne' in this dish is lamb instead of beef. The sauce in this dish is lightly spiced and simmered to ensure its richness.

Cooking Steps

Make the Rice
1
  • Pour 300ml cold salted water (per 2P) into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
  • Stir in the rice then bring to the boil. 
  • Once boiling, lower the heat to medium and cover with the lid. 
  • Cook for 10 mins, then remove the pot from the heat.
  • Keep covered for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
Fry the Lamb
2
  • Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 
  • Drain and rinse the beans in a sieve.
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat (without oil). 
  • Once hot, fry the lamb mince until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Season with salt and pepper.
Simmer the Sauce
3
  • Add the garlic and pepper to the pan (with a drizzle of oil if needed). Cook for 2 mins. 
  • Add the cumin, Mexican spice, chopped tomatoes and beans
  • Stir in the stock, ½ tsp sugar (per 2P) and 75ml water (per 2P). Bring to the boil.
  • Lower heat to medium and simmer until the sauce is nice and thick, 8-10 mins. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. IMPORTANT: Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Finish and Serve
4
  • Once cooked, season to taste with salt and pepper. Loosen the sauce with a splash of water if necessary.
  • Stir in as much of the chilli flakes as you like (use less if you don't like spice).
  • Fluff up the rice with a fork and share between bowls.
  • Top the rice with spoonfuls of chilli con carne.
  • Finish with a sprinkling of cheese.
