Nans Chili Recipes

Steps:

• Brown ground beef.
• Add tomato sauce, tomatoes and water.
• Stir in the onion, garlic and seasonings.
• Add beans and simmer 30- 45 minutes.
• Serve with saltine crackers to crush into the chili.

Steps:

• 1. Brown ground beef. Drain fat and set aside. Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in heavy pot over medium high heat, adding onions when hot. Saute for 4-5 minutes. Add bell pepper and garlic. Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes more. Add black pepper, ground cumin, ground chipotle pepper, crushed red peppers and chili powder, while continually stirring until spices begin to stick to bottom of pot and brown (30-45 seconds). Quickly add 3 cups of hot water. Add tomato puree, diced tomatoes and the juice they were packed in. Add kidney beans and salt. Add the ground beef. Stir when chili begins to boil. Reduce heat to low and cover. Ideally the chili should be simmered 3 hours to let all the flavors blend together. Stir about every 15 minutes. If you don't have 3 hours, use less chipotle and crushed red peppers.

Steps:

• Preperation:.
• Lightly flour a dry surface.
• Place a sheet of greaseproof paper on a baking tray.
• Place all dry ingredients in a mixer, ensuring that the salt and the yeast are separated.
• Form a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and add the Oil and Water.
• Mix on a low setting for 4 minutes until the dough has formed and has come away from the sides of the mixing bowl.
• Remove from mixing bowl and place onto the floured surface.
• The dough should be relatively stretchy so gently knead for a maximum of 1 minute and then separate the dough into two equal pieces.
• Shape each piece into a ball and place on the baking tray, ensuing they are separated by at least 10cm.
• Cover the tray and leave to rise in a warm area for a minimum of 1 hour. If you are covering with a plastic bag or cling film, lightly rub some oil on the top of the dough to prevent them from sticking.
• Method:.
• Once the dough has risen, place onto a lightly floured surface.
• Roll each ball out to a maximum thickness of 1cm.
• Sprinkle the cheese in the centre of the dough.
• Pull the edges of the dough inward and form together to seal the cheese inside.
• Rollout the dough again to a maximum of 0.5cm thickness. The folds made from sealing should no longer be visible and there should not be any gaps where the cheese can escape from.
• Heat a large, lightly oiled pan.
• Once the oil has heated up, place one of rolled out naans into the pan, folded side down.
• Heat for 4 minutes, on a relatively high heat, lightly shaking the pan after 2 minutes to ensure dough does not stick. Bubbles should now have formed on the top layer.
• Turn over and repeat, heating the other side for 3 to 4 minutes or until nicely browned. Remove from the pan and serve, placing a small amount of butter on top.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Sprinkle the breads with a little water, then top with grated cheddar and chilli. Bake on the oven racks for 5 mins until the cheese has melted, then remove and scatter with the coriander.
• Cut into quarters and serve.
