Nigella's Quick Chilli
A quick beef chilli recipe inspired by Nigella. I love the addition of chorizo and will add it in to all of my chilli recipes from now on.
This quick chilli is perfect for a weeknight as its thrown together so fast. It has quite a sweet taste thanks to the sweet chilli sauce and, although not entirely authentic, it's really really tasty.

ReplyDeleteI would never have thought to use sweet chili sauce
ReplyDeleteI have fond memories of this chilli. Delicious but not so good for the waistline. I do add a dash of sweet chilli sauce to my own chilli now to make a change from chocolate. Yummy :)
