Today for lunch we served a Beef Chilli Con Carne served with homemade potato wedges accompanied with sweetcorn and green beans.
Chilli con carne meaning "chilli with meat", is a spicy stew containing chilli peppers (sometimes in the form of child powder, meat (usually beef), tomatoes and often pinto beans or kidney beans. Other seasonings may include garlic, onions and cumin. The dish originated in northern Mexico or southern Texas.
