Wanted cornbread, needed chili. A #recipe.
- Convey thyself to the supermarket.
- Grab 1 lbs meat, likely beef.
- 2 cans beans, likely pinto.
- 4 cans hatch chile. The little yellow cans.
- You know what you like. Grab some other chili adjacent ingredients. Probably a white onion for dicing. Tomato paste. You have chili powder at home, yeah? Shredded cheese. Crushed tomatoes or diced, even sauce? No sauce, but get a can anyways. Garlic... A red pepper. So strange that they lock the laundry detergent up now. There's not many people here, this time of night. Get followed around by 3 security guards, conspicuous in their plate carriers.
- Allons-y, and mise en place. This is quick chili.
- Brown the meat. Freestyle a bit. Various powders and spices.
- Tomato paste, into the stew.
- Etc. This isn't a soup. Use the too-expensive salt to season.
- Forget to prepare the cornbread. This is less-than-quick chili now.
