Heat the oil in a large pan over low heat and fry the onion until softened, about 10min. Add the meat, turn up the heat and brown all over, about 5min.
Step 2
Stir through the garlic, chillies, cumin, and bay leaf and fry for a further 1min. Add the tomato purée, tomatoes, beans with sauce, coffee and sugar. Bring to the boil, then turn down to simmer for 20-25min, until liquid has reduced and mixture has thickened.
Step 3
Once tender, season to taste, remove bay leaf and stir through most of the coriander. Serve with rice or nachos, topped with the remaining coriander, sour cream and grated Cheddar cheese, if you like.
Cook chilli but don’t stir in the coriander. Cool, transfer to a freezer-safe container or bag and freeze for up to 1 month. To serve, defrost in fridge and reheat in a pan until piping hot. Complete recipe
An experienced and highly skilled team of food writers, stylists and digital content producers, the Good Housekeeping Cookery Team is a close-knit squad of food obsessives. Cookery Editor Emma Franklin is our resident chilli obsessive and barbecue expert, who spends an inordinate amount of time on holidays poking round the local supermarkets seeking out new and exciting foods. Senior Cookery Writer Alice Shields is a former pastry chef and baking fanatic who loves making bread and would have peanut butter with everything if she could. Her favourite carb is pasta, and our vibrant green spaghetti is her weeknight go-to. Lover of all things savoury, Senior Cookery Writer Grace Evans can be found eating crispy corn and nocellara olives at every opportunity, and will take the cheeseboard over dessert any time (though she cannot resist a slice of tres leches cake). With a wealth of professional kitchen know-how, culinary training and years of experience between them, they are all dedicated to ensuring every Good Housekeeping recipe is the best it can be, so you can trust they’ll work (and if they don’t – we’ll have the answer for why*) every time (*90% of the time the answer is: “buy an separate oven thermometer”!).
