Here are some tips and tricks to help you make the best vegan chili:_🌶️

  • Use a Variety of Beans: This recipe calls for both kidney beans and black beans, but feel free to use any beans you like. Mixing different types of beans will give your chili a more complex flavour and texture.
  • Add Corn: Corn is a great addition to vegan chili as it adds a slightly sweet and crunchy texture. Add it towards the end of cooking to keep it from becoming too soft.
  • Don’t Overcook the Vegetables: Overcooked vegetables can become mushy and lose their flavour. Cook the vegetables until they are tender but still have a slight crunch.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro and parsley add a fresh and vibrant flavour to the chili. Add them towards the end of cooking to preserve their flavour and colour.
  • Adjust the Spice Level: This recipe calls for mild chili powder, but feel free to adjust the spice level to your liking. You can add more chili powder or hot sauce for extra heat.
  • Serve with Toppings: Serve your chili with a variety of toppings like avocado, lime wedges, tortilla chips, or vegan sour cream. This will add even more flavour and texture to your dish.

By following these tips and tricks, you’ll be able to create a delicious and flavourful vegan chili that will impress everyone at the table.

FAQs:

Q: What can I use in chili instead of meat?

A: Yes, as a cook, I love  using plant-based ingredients in place of meat in chili. Here are some great options:

  1. Beans: Beans are a classic substitute for meat in chili. They are high in protein, fibre, and nutrients, and add a hearty texture to the dish. Kidney beans, black beans, and chickpeas are all great options._
  2. Tofu: Tofu is a versatile ingredient that can take on the flavours of your favourite spices and seasonings. Use firm or extra-firm tofu and crumble it into the chili for a meat-like texture.
