Lets try cooking chilli con carne + recipe

First things first (I'm the realist..see what I did there?) I'm not the best cook.

I am pretty bad to say the least I do not particularly enjoy cooking but from time to time I want to give it a try.

Tonight I thought i'd try Chilli con carne. 

I like to set a scene when I'm cooking and I like to play jazz music. (No idea why? I also play this genre when I am cleaning) So i put a bit of Louis Armstrong on and got ready.

The ingredients are

450g Mince beef

One onion

Half a can of chopped onions

Half a can of Kidney beans

Colemans flavouring sachet

Rice

First, put the mince and onion and a little oil into a pan and cook until brown.

I then had a little disaster! (This is obvious this would happen) I cannot use normal can openers, I do not know why I just cannot open cans! I have a battery powered one (No laughing) but the batteries had ran out and there was none in the flat! 

I had to put Louis on pause, hob off and run down to the shop to get some.

After that dilemma I added the can of tomatoes, kidney beans and mixed the sachet with a little water and threw that in too!

Then just let the pan simmer for about 15-20 mins and cook the rice in a separate pan.

and Voila! Dinner is served.

I am impressed with myself. It actually tasted really nice and was so easy to make!

Let me know if you give it a go or have any other easy recipes I could try!
