This recipe is different to the mainstream Con Carnes. It has a distinctive aroma and an equally impressive taste. This recipe originated from a VERY old mexican cookbook my mum purchased 20 years ago.
Ingredients:
500 g beef, cubed
500 g pork, cubed
1 onion, chopped
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste (170g)
2 garlic cloves
1 (600 ml) bottle tomato sauce
2 cups water
1 -4 tablespoon mild chili powder
2 tablespoons cocoa
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons oregano
1 teaspoon cumin
1 (440 g) can red kidney beans
Directions:
1. Add Pork and Beef to pan and brown meat.
2. Then add onion, garlic, water, tomato sauce and tomato paste.
3. Mix Cocoa, chilli powder, salt, cumin, oregano and add to pan slowly, mixing in well.
4. Cook on low for 1-2 hours or until meat is tender OR pile ingredients into crockpot and cook on LOW for 8-10 hours.
5. This dish is quite unique as it uses cubed meats rather than mince.
