One of my favourite meals for cold winter days, or even rainy ones, is homemade chilli. We do ours in a crockpot: fill it in the morning and scoop it out at dinnertime.
Like all our favourite recipes, this one has a bit of a story. Before we had kids, our Bible study group helped serve dinner for an Alpha course. The food was planned and prepared by a Singaporean woman with a passion for cooking. She shared this recipe for her chilli, which was the best we had ever tasted. It freezes well and it’s easy for a large group meal. I think the secret is the brown sugar and cinnamon.
I’m still working away at my recipe book, and purged numerous old recipes over the holidays. I’m down to just a few favourites and looking for more…
Hope you enjoy some chilli this winter!!
