Roughly chop one medium-sized onion and fry gently. Add 250g lean minced beef and continue to fry until brown. Pour in a good splash of red wine (plus a glass for yourself, a la Floyd), and add seasoning - salt, an Oxo cube and 1/2 jar of mild chili powder (plus optional extras such as freshly ground black pepper, Garam Masala, Mixed spice etc if required). Stir in well, then add a small tin of chopped tomatoes and leave to simmer for 20 minutes or so. After putting on the water for the rice, strain and rinse a tin of red kidney beans and add to the chilli. When the rice is done, serve up with a generous topping of mature cheddar cheese and a tinny on the side. Lovely.
