A classic chili con carne served in a bowl.
Welcome to FabulousFusionFood's Chili-based Recipes Page — A chili/chilli is a classic Tex/Mex recipe for a flavoursome stew of beef, beans and spices with chillies in a tomato base that is a feature of Tex/Mex cookery. It is also a common dish in Mexico (though made differently). Due to the popularity of Chili con Carne, this has essentially become an international dish and is now made with a variety of meats (or no meat) and a range of spices. However, all chilis should contain chilli pepper in one form or other and typically contains cumin as well. Here a range of chilis are presented, originating from across the globe.
Classic chili types include: Chili con carne or Carne con chile, a spicy stew of Mexican origin containing chilli peppers (sometimes in the form of chilli powder), meat (usually beef), tomatoes, and often pinto beans or kidney beans. Other seasonings may include garlic, onions, and cumin. Vegetarian chili (also known as chili sin carne, chili without meat, chili non carne, and chili sans carne) acquired wide popularity in the U.S. during the 1960s and 1970s with the rise of vegetarianism. Chile verde ('green chili') is a moderately to extremely spicy New Mexican stew or sauce usually made from chunks of pork that have been slow-cooked in chicken broth, garlic, green tomatillos, and roasted green chillies. Cactus chili is a spicy Southwestern stew that is a variation on traditional chili con carne, usually containing traditional ingredients such as chilli peppers, beef, tomatoes, and pinto beans, along with sliced cactus pieces. It is traditionally cooked in a slow cooker and served with a side of salted crackers. White chili is made using chicken or turkey meat and broth, white beans, and green chili peppers. The resulting dish appears light in colour when cooked. A white cheese, such as Monterey Jack, or sour cream are often added when served.
