STEP 1
Cut the zucchini and peppers into small cubes and finely chop the onion and garlic. Remove the seeds from the chili pepper and chop them very finely.
STEP 2
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan, sauté the onion for a minute, then add the other vegetables, garlic and chili. I use the whole chili here, but use less if you prefer it less spicy. Simmer for about five minutes over medium heat with the lid closed. Stir occasionally.
STEP 3
Season with cumin, cinnamon and a little vegetable stock powder or salt. Now add the minced meat and fry briefly.
STEP 4
Drain the can of red beans in a colander and rinse under cold water. Add them to the chili along with the diced canned tomatoes.
STEP 5
Simmer the chili on low heat for another 15 minutes, seasoning as needed. Serve the chili with rice or nachos, and finish with a little sour cream and fresh cilantro.
