  12. Trust me, this stuff is GOOD . . . . VERY GOOD 2 large onions, finely chopped 6 garlic cloves, crushed 1kg lean minced beef 400ml of Guinness 1 400g tin of red kidney beans 2 400g tins of chopped tomatoes 1 green pepper, roughly chopped 150g of tomato purée 4 red birds eye chillies, thinly sliced, WITH SEEDS 1 Ramiro pepper 1 teaspoon of ground cumin 1 teaspoon of ground coriander 1 crushed stick of cinnamon Good splash of Tabasco sauce 1 beef stock cube Salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 large bunch coriander leaves, roughly chopped Plain yoghurt, sour cream or crème fraiche Fry the onion and garlic with a little oil, in a large heavy frying-pan until softened. Turn up the heat and add the mince and a little more oil, cooking quickly until browned and breaking down any chunks with a wooden spoon. Pour in the Guinness and boil for 2-3 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large pan or slow cooker and add the tomatoes, green pepper, tomato purée, ground coriander, birds eye chillies, cumin, cinnamon, and Tabasco sauce and crumble in the stock cube. Add salt and pepper to taste, bring to a simmer. Top and tail the Ramiro Pepper and add it whole to the mix, cover with a lid and cook over a very low heat ( around 70-80C ) for about 3 to 4 hours, or until the Ramiro has completely broken up, stirring occasionally until the mixture is thick. Drain the kidney beans and add them and the fresh coriander. Cook for a further 10 minutes, uncovered, before removing from the heat. Top each portion of chilli con carnie with a dollop of plain yoghurt, sour cream or crème fraiche and serve with rice, or baked potatoes. DON'T FORGET, while it's cooking take regular trips outside for "a bit of fresh air", as it smells wonderful when you come back in the house :Cool: Keep any leftovers in the fridge, it gets even better with age. Enjoy :In-love: Credit has to go to my friend Melina for the basic recipe, I've just adapted it a bit to a slightly hotter taste than most Norwegians like. It's not a tongue burner by any means, more like a medium hot curry type spicy, but if you don't like it like that, reduce or increase the birds eye chillies to taste, BUT, leave in the seeds of the chillies.

    HELP!

    Remove the cartridges, and with an INK eraser, NOT a pencil eraser, give the electrical contacts a few rubs, then wipe them off with a cotton bud soaked in a mildish solvent (vodka is good for this !! ). Dab dry with some kitchen roll or bog roll, check there's no fibre strands left on the contacts from the bud or the roll, then refit. Might work, might not :Fun:
