chili con maharaja

my masterpiece of choice for the week is an old favorite and something that everyone will have fun making.

chili was on the plate or in the bowl rather and the timing couldn't have been more perfect with the superbowl having just passed.

this recipe has undergone many transformations and iterations in my many years of creating the treasured treat, but i'm confident that this is the best that has ever turned out.


Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
6 habanero and chili sausage links
4 green onions
1 green pepper
1 red pepper
1 yellow pepper
2 cans of red beans
2 tomato sauce cans (10 oz)
3 cloves of garlic
1 chili seasoning powder packet

fresh garlic
ground cardamom
pinch of salt
ground cumin seed
chili powder
worcestershire sauce
tabasco sauce
lemon juice
rice vinegar
canola oil

Preparation:
- Brown ground beef and add chili seasoning powder; when complete put in large pot
- slice sausage and brown to liking; add to pot when complete
