Piri Piri smoked mackerel etc, all done in 12 minutes in the Ninja Speedi.
I'm gonna need to compensate with a huge burger tomorrow night!
 
Its been a few years since I had one, are they not as good?

The ones in the 90s use to be full with sour crystal things that really pulled your face back and the bar would near as dammit pull your teeth out. When I had one recently it was just a standard chew bar with none of the good bits. Was very disappointed. :cry:

Lunch today was the 3rd time eating that stew, unfortunately there's enough for tea tonight! Oh well, waste not want not... It is pretty good stew to be fair.
 
Chilli and rice

Love a bit of Chilleh, weekly staple in our house. We need a cook off thread, or poster's recipes at least.

Found this lord from 2009 and updated with 14 years of recipe tweaks:

500g Lean Steak Mince
500g Pork Mince
One White onion diced

2 Oxo Cubes
2 tsp Ground Cumin
2 tsp Oregano
1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper
4 cloves garlic

1 desert spoon of maple syrup
1 desert spoon of Worcester Sauce
1 tsp of Ancho Chilli paste

1 x healthy teaspoon of hot chilli powder
1 x Bird Eye Chilli
1 tsp ancho chilli flakes

Tin of chopped toms
1 tblsp Tom Puree

Kidney Beans
Salt and Pepper to taste

--

1) Sweat off the onions with a good pinch of salt on a low heat for 7-8 mins
2) Brown the meat off in batches, drain the fat
3) Add to onions.
4) Create a little opening to the bottom of the pan and add the tom puree and chilli paste, cook for a minute or so
5) Whilst the pastes are getting some heat, throw the spices all over the meat.
6) Give everything a good stir, getting those spices nice and warm.
7) Add the garlic, chilli flakes, chilli - all the hot stuff. Adjust to your preference.
8) Add toms, stir.
9) Fill the tom can up with water and also add.
10) Bring to a bubble, reduce the heat and cook covered for at least an hour, ideally two. Stir often, if it looks dry add more water.
11) Add the drained kidney beans and cook for another 20-25 mins (this stops the beans turning to mush)
12) Before serving simmer uncovered to reduce down (stops the watery mess under the rice in the bowl)

Serve with rice, pan warmed/fried tortillas, lime wedges and sour cream.
