Hi, Ray here again
The Lamb Xacutti curry from last week was a great success and I wanted to try a nice and easy recipe that does not take all of the spice preparation that the xacutti needed.
I checked out the yummy Curry Focus recipes and saw the Chilli Con Carne that looked like a really easy dish to make. Peeling and chopping the onion really was the most difficult part of making the chilli.
And it is a very, very simple recipe to follow with nothing to really go wrong.
The chilli was served up on a bed of basmati rice to the assembled diners and we all eagerly ate the chilli.
The chilli got a lukewarm reception from everyone with people saying it was bland, did not have any real body and was definitely missing something.
The chilli got an overall rating of 6 out of 10 with a spice/heat level of medium.
You should give this recipe a try if you like eating chilli con carne but it doesn’t really have enough spices or flavour to be considered a curry.
