CHILI CON CARNE 1 medium chopped onion 2 cloves 2 lb. meat (may be beef, pork, wild game or mixture) in 1/2-inch cubes or ground 8 oz. tomato sauce 16 oz. water 7 Tbsp. ground chili peppers (not chili powder) 1 tsp. cayenne (red) pepper 1 1/2 tsp. salt 1 tsp. paprika 1 1/2 tsp. cumin 1 1/2 tsp. oregano 2 Tbsp. masa Lightly brown onion and cloves. Add meat. Sear until grey. Add remaining ingredients except masa. Simmer 1 1/4 hours, add more salt to taste. Skim grease if desired. Add 2 tablespoons masa mixed with enough water to form thin paste. Simmer another 1/4 hour or until meat is tender. This should be hot enough to bring a pleasant sweat to the forehead and still have respect for the innards. Add more cayenne pepper to make hotter. Start with small servings, it is very filling. If your mouth burns, eat flour tortillas, refried beans or drink milk. DO NOT drink water or beer. Also makes a good filling for burritos. If you can't find ground chili pepper, try Wick Fowlers 2-Alarm Chili mix, substituting fresh onion and garlic for the powdered package.
