I bear in mind when I cooked chilli con carne for the very first time. It was years back, as well as it was so easy! I fried some beef and after that ... I opened up a pack of spices mix! I added it to the meat along with tomatoes, a sprinkle of water and red kidney beans and done! Yes, although I am ashamed to admit to it currently, I need to admit that I used a shop-bought mix to make that recipe in the past. There is something also much more embarrassing. When that all set to prepare package had not been available any longer, I quit preparing chili con carne. Why? I reflected then that making it from square one was too complicated which I would certainly never attain the same taste.
When I finally got my courage and a terrific dish, also! I understood that thanks to cooking it myself, I knew what exactly was in it. And also it tasted most likely also much better than the one I used to make. No surprise then that it quickly turned into one of my family's much-loved meals.
Nonetheless, when my daughter determined to become vegan, I knew I had to face an additional obstacle. I had to prepare a meal that is based upon meat but without the meat. And also clearly, I needed to make it taste like a genuine thing.

I need to state, I didn't have a problem with discovering a substitute for meat. Equally as it was in the case of another of my vegetarian/vegan makeovers - Bolognese sauce, I used mushrooms. In my viewpoint, it is pretty very easy to achieve a appearance and also look of deep-fried minced meat when you utilize thinly cut champignons instead.
Nonetheless, I still intended to get the exact same taste of the Vegetarian Chili Con Carne as we knew from the Chili with meat. I made a decision to take the easiest route and also use for my Veggie Chilli Con Carne the same products as well as spices as I did for the conventional Chilli. That likewise included my secret, magical ingredient - dark chocolate, which transforms this delicious recipe to the next, genuine taste level.
