Ingredients
Lamb Chilli
- 1 lamb oyster shoulder
- 1-2 Tbsp Mexican spice mix
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 brown onion
- 1 carrot
- 1 can chilli beans
- 70g tomato paste
- 1-1½ tsp beef stock powder (1 for slow cooker, 1½ for oven)
- 1-1½ cups boiling water (1 for slow cooker, 1½ for oven)
- 1 Tbsp sweet chilli sauce
- 125g frozen corn
Rice
- 300g jasmine rice
- 2¼ cups water
To Serve
- 1 Lebanese cucumber
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 125g sour cream
- 2 Tbsp chopped coriander
Steps
-
Pat lamb dry and rub with Mexican spice mix, garlic and salt. Thinly slice onion and finely dice carrot. Place in slow cooker/casserole dish, cover and set aside. Bring a half full kettle to the boil.
-
Combine beef stock powder and boiling water in a heat-proof bowl. Add chilli beans, tomato paste, beef stock and sweet chilli sauce and stir to combine. Cover and set aside.
-
Preheat oven to 200°C. Add prepared sauce to lamb and slow cook, on low for 8-9 hours, or cover and cook in the oven for about 2 hours 45 minutes, until chilli has thickened and is cooked through.
-
When lamb has 25 minutes cook time remaining, combine rice, water and a pinch of salt in a medium pot and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 8 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
When chilli is ready, remove lamb and place on a chopping board. Pull lamb off the bone, roughly chop and return to slow cooker/casserole dish, along with corn and cook for a further 3-5 minutes, until corn is tender. Season to taste. Finely dice cucumber.
-
Spoon ¾ cup rice into each bowl and top with chilli con carne, Parmesan, sour cream, cucumber and coriander.
