I decided to to cook something that would be as if a chilli and pulled beef had a baby. A perfect little spicy meat baby. I used my father-in-laws famous chilli recipe as a guideline but I don't really like to cook after recipes (too impatient) so I ended up just throwing stuff in and improvising.
I thought at first that I shouldn't bore you with the recipe but then I realised that if I post it here I can look back next time to remind myself. So here's the shopping list Helena:
- Big chunk of meat - sear before placing in the slow cooker! Crucial.
- 2 onions
- 2 celery sticks
- 2 carrots
- 5 cloves garlic
- 5 bird eye chillies
- A squeeze of BBQ sauce
- 1 tube tomato pure
- 1 tin chopped tomatoes
- A splash of balsamic vinegar
- LOTS of salt and pepper (I used smoked salt in this batch)
- Chilli powder & paprika
- 2 sweet potatoes
- 1 tin chickpeas
- 1 tin broad beans
- 1 tin kidney beans
- 2 beef stock cubes
- 1 litre of water
- 1/3 of a bunch fresh coriander
- Dash of red wine
I think that's it. So basically - chop everything and place in the slow cooker, with the seared meat in the middle. Don't have a slow cooker? Lame!
As you can see it looks absolutely stunning. This i before I added all the sauces and spices by the way, I decided this was more photo friendly heheheheh...
So, what did I do the rest of the day? This:
