With Chili Con Carne you can never go wrong. It’s great as a midnight dish if you’re having a big party e.g. for New Year’s eve, and it’s also one of my kid’s favorite foods. All three of them like it very much, which does not happen often these days. I cook it almost every other week because it’s a good source of nutrition for their weekday meals and very easy and quick to prepare. I love to add cumin and cinnamon because it creates a very nice flavor.
While traveling trough India years ago, I fell in love with Indian food. Back home I started cooking it, and the smell of a freshly prepared curry is unbelievable. I usually cook more meat and fish curries accompanied by side dishes like Saag Paneer (spinach and cheese) or Daal (red lentils). Here I created a delicious chickpea and sweet potato curry, which is a great vegetarian dish and a solid alternative to meat or fish curry.
