RECIPE OF THE WEEK
Vegetarian Chili with Winter Vegetables
INGREDIENTS
- 3 (14-oz cans) pinto beans
- 2tablespoons grapeseed, sunflower or canola oil
- 1onion, finely chopped
- 1large or 2 medium carrots, cut in small dice
- 1red pepper, diced (optional)
- 2large garlic cloves, minced
- 3tablespoons mild ground chili (or use hot, or use more)
- 1tablespoon lightly toasted cumin seeds, ground
- 128-ounce can chopped tomatoes
- 1teaspoon dried oregano, preferably Mexican oregano
- 2tablespoons tomato paste dissolved in 1 cup water
- 2cups diced winter squash (about ¾ pound)
- Salt to taste
- ½cup chopped cilantro
- Grated cheddar or Monterey Jack, or crumbled queso fresco for garnish (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Heat the beans on top of the stove in a large soup pot or Dutch oven. Heat the oil over medium heat in a heavy nonstick skillet and add the onion, carrot and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and beginning to color, about 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic, stir together until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute, and add the ground chili and cumin. Cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes, until the mixture begins to stick to the pan. Add the tomatoes and oregano, and salt to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down and the mixture is beginning to stick to the pan, about 10 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste dissolved in water and bring back to a simmer. Season with salt to taste and simmer, stirring often, for 10 minutes, until the mixture is thick and fragrant.
- Stir the tomato mixture into the beans. Add the winter squash and bring to a simmer. Simmer, stirring often, for 30 to 45 minutes. It is important to stir often so that the chili doesn’t settle and stick to the bottom of the pot. It should be thick; if you desire you can thin out with water. Taste and adjust salt.
- Shortly before serving stir in the cilantro and simmer for 5 minutes. Spoon into bowls. If you wish, top with grated cheddar, Monterey jack, or crumbled queso fresco.
Tip: Advance preparation: The simmered beans can be made 3 or 4 days ahead and the chili will keep for 3 or 4 days in the refrigerator. You will probably want to thin it out with water is it will continue to thicken. It freezes well.
