Ingredients
 

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion (finely diced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (crushed)
  • 1 kg beef mince
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried chilli flakes

  • 800 g crushed tomatoes
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Extras To Serve

  • Corn chips
  • Grated tasty cheese
  • Guacamole
  • Sour cream

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a frying pan and saute onion and garlic until soft.
  • Transfer to slow-cooker.
  • Stir in mince, salt and pepper, oregano, chilli flakes, beef stock, tomato paste, kidney beans and tinned tomatoes.
  • Cook, covered, on low for 6 hours. Then remove lid and put on high for 1-1.5 hours until mixture thickens.
  • To serve, melt tasty cheese on corn chips under the griller. Once golden brown, layer on top chilli con carne, guacamole and sour cream.

Notes

  • Chilli con carne is able to be served anytime after after cooking on low for 6 hrs if you prefer a thinner sauce. My family likes it thicker so the extra 1-1.5 hours on high with the lid off does the trick!
