    fuck yo chilli, if you want meat and beans have a fabada.

    take some
    ham hock (or gammon)
    pork belly (or shoulder)
    pancetta
    chorizo
    morcillas
    tocino
    sliced onion
    garlic
    dried chilli
    thyme
    bay

    no need to chop the meat, just chuck it all in a large pan, add water to cover bring to the boil, and then stew slowly for at least 2 hours, preferably more.

    take out all the lumps of meat and break them up/slice the chorizo and morcillas, and put the mess back in the pan.

    check seasoning, you might want to skim off the fat if you're squeamish, but don't as it has the flavour. dissolve some flour in some of the cooking liquid (you'll need to cool it down first) and add that to the pan instead.

    add some white beans of some sort (soaked first if they are dried) and a decent glug of sherry (for your umami kick) and carry on stewing for another hour or so.

    chop a load of parsley and chuck it in with the juice of a lemon. stir it all up and serve.

    it'll look like a dog has vomited on your plate, but worry not, it tastes amazing. especially with some fresh cooked beetroot on the side

    way better than any sodding tex-mex horror.

    • Fuck you with your tex-mex dig - chili needs cumin and coriander, you dog! But this sounds lovely all the same, just different to what I'd do.Nairn
