INGREDIENTS

Made with

Red Kidney Beans

Red kidney beans are a convenient way to make your meat dishes go further. Add them to mince recipes, soups, stews and casseroles to make the meal go further, whilst also bumping up the protein and dietary fibre.

Method

Step 1

Heat a dash of oil in a heavy based saucepan. Quickly brown mince with the onion.

Step 2

Reduce heat and add Wattie's Mexican Creations Chilli Con Carne Simmer Sauce, Wattie's Red Kidney Beans in Springwater and green capsicum. Simmer for 20-25 minutes, until mince is cooked. 5 minutes before the end of cooking add 1 cup of Wattie's Creations Mexican Style Frozen Vegetables (if using).

Step 3

Serve over steamed rice. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves.

Tips

Altertively cook in a slow cooker on low heat for 4 hours, or in an oven-proof dish at 160°C for 2 hours, adding beans ½ hour before the end of cooking and frozen vegetables 10 minutes before the end.

For an extra spicy kick, add some chopped fresh red or green chillies to the browned mince and onions.

Serve the Chilli Con Carne over cho chips, with grated cheese and a dollop of sour cream.
