- CHILI WITH FIVE KINDS OF PEPPERS
- - --------------------------------
- 5 peppers (in this case, they were
- 1 big jalapeno, 2 cuban frying peppers, 1 hot hungarian,
- 1 long cheese pepper, and a little paprika)
- 1 cup dried black beans
- 1 cup dried pinto beans
- 1 cup dried kidney beans
-
- 2 onions (white and yellow?)
- 3 garlic cloves
- tomatoes (3 big beefsteak or about 8 roma)
- cumin, coriander, oregano, salt, pepper to taste
- olive oil
-
- Soak the beans overnight, then simmer until tender (1 to 2 hours)
- I tend to add some seaweed while cooking
- (dump in a bowl so you can use the bean pot for frying)
- roast the cumin in a frying pan (optional, but valuable)
- I used about 2 to 3 tsp
- chop onions and garlic, saute in oil
- chop peppers, saute with onion & garlic
- add chopped tomatoes, cook a until soft
- Add the beans, and some bean liquid
- Add the spices and cook for another hour or so
-
- It seems to be good stuff, though a bit too hot.
- The black beans and tomatoes really help give it body.
- This is probably the first vege chili I've made that was *better* than
- the meat chilis I used to make when I ate it, though I've had some batches that
- were almost as good. Serve with good bread and/or rice.
