INGREDIENTS
• 2 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 pound ground meat (or extra firm tofu + nutritional yeast, soy sauce, and olive oil)
• 1 large onion
• 1 cup stock
• 1 14½ ounce can diced tomatoes
• ½ cup coffee
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar (or other sweetener)
• 1 tablespoon chile sauce (I recommend Aardvark)
• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
• 1/2 chili pepper seeded and finely chopped, or to taste
• 5 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• ¾ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 2 15½ oz can can black beans (1 cup dried cooked)
• 1 15½ oz can can chickpeas (½ cup dried cooked)
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Brew coffee and finely chop onion.
2) Heat olive oil in a dutch oven or other large pot over medium heat. Add onions and ground meat (if using). Sauté until onions are translucent and the meat is browned.
2) Add chili pepper, ground cumin, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, and oregano cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
3) Add stock, diced tomatoes, coffee, brown sugar, chile sauce, cocoa powder, salt, and beans. Stir. Bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to low and simmer, partly covered, for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Season to taste & serve
*If you are using tofu, combine 1 tablespoons nutritional yeast, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl, break the tofu into chunks, then mash with fork or potato masher. Mix well then bake at 350F for 30-45 minutes until well browned, stirring occasionally). Add the crumbles to the chili, and simmer until the tofu absorbs the chili and gets chewy.
