Here is how you make Beef Chili Con Carne:

Pre-heat oven to 200 C / 390 F.----------1. Brown off the minced beef in a saucepan - a heavy-bottomed saute pan if you have one. Break it up a little. You shouldn't need any oil but might want to use some if your pan isn't non-stick.2. Chop the leek and onion. Keep them separate.3. Once the mince is browned, add the onion and garlic. Continue to saute lightly for a couple of minutes.4. Add the cans of tomatoes and beans to a decent sized, heavy bottomed pot. Stir.5.

Bake in oven for approx. 3 hours, stirring every hour wherever possible.----------Serving Suggestions:- Top with a little grated cheese or your choice of herb- On rice - brown or long grain is best- In tortilla wraps- In taco shells- On pastaNumber of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user .
