# Chilli
A quick beef chill made in the Instant Pot. I added a dried ancho chilli with the liquid, and at the end of cooking took it out, chopped it finely, and stirred back through. Might be nice with some hot smoked paprika.
![Chilli with jacket potato, cheese, and soured cream](chilli.jpg)
### Ingredients
* 1 tablespoon oil
* 400 g minced beef
* 2 each onions, chopped
* 2 cloves garlic, crushed
* 2 teaspoons ground cumin
* 2 teaspoons hot chilli powder
* 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
* 1 tablespoon tomato puree
* 400 g tin chopped tomatoes
* 400 g tin red kidney beans
* 400 ml beef stock
* 1 each lime, squeezed
* salt
* black pepper
### Directions
Heat the oil on the sautee setting and brown the mince, then stir in the onions and a good pinch of salt and cook until softened, adding a slpash of water if they start to catch. Add the crushed garlic and continue cooking for another couple of minutes.
Stir in the spices, the cocoa powder, and the tomato puree, and cook out for a couple of minutes. Now stir in the tomatoes, kidney beans and stock.
Put on the lid and set to pressure cook on high for 10 minutes. Allow pressure to drop naturally for another 10 minutes before releasing the pressure.
If necessary, switch back to sautee and let it bubble for a few minutes to thicken the sauce.
Stir in the juice from the lime, check the seasoning, and serve.

# Mushroom Nut Roast
Danna's mother's mushroom nut roast, by way of Lalli.
### Ingredients
* 1 large onion, diced
* 1 cup grated cheese (we use cheddar)
* 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
* 4 beaten eggs
* 1/4 lb melted butter (oil would be fine too)
* 4 slices of bread (I like really hearty sprouted wheat bread)
* herbs: parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme, or variants thereof
* 1 lb mushrooms, coarsely chopped
* 1/4 cup water
* 1/4 cup soy sauce
#### For the gravy
* onions (at least one)
* mushrooms (portabella or baby bella are best)
* 4 Tbsp butter (olive oil would probably work, but I've never tried)
* 1/4 cup flour (Might use less - maybe 2 TA)
* 1/2 cup sherry or marsala (other flavored liquids would work, but these have the best flavor here)
* 2 - 4 cups liquid (ideally vegetable broth - I use water)
#### Optional extras:
* garlic (as much as you like)
* thyme, dried or fresh
* paprika
* fresh parsley
### Directions
Mix all ingredients apart from water and soy sauce in a bowl, then transfer to a buttered/oiled casserole dish.
Baked at 350F (gas mark 4) for 20 minutes, then add the water and soy sauce and bake for a further 20 minutes.
#### For the gravy
You'll need two pans. First you saute onions, garlic and mushrooms in one. Add sherry and liquid etc. Then make the roux in the second. Then add the first pan to the second pan.

# Cherry Trifle
This can be made with any soft fruits that are in season or apples cooked down to a puree. You might need to vary the amount of sugar you add depending on the sweetness of the fruit. You can also change the alcohol according to the fruit: sweet sherry works with anything; creme de mure for a blackberry trifle; Calvados for an apple trifle, etc.
### Ingredients
#### For the sponge
* 2 eggs
* 55 g caster sugar
* 1 tbsp boiling water
* pinch salt
* 55 g plain flour
* 50 ml kirsch
#### For the fruit
* 50 g sugar
* 50 ml water
* 500 g cherries, stones removed
#### For the custard
* 300 ml double cream
* 200 ml milk
* 1 vanilla pod, split lenthwise and seeds scraped
* 4 egg yolks
* 60 g sugar
* 20 g corn flour
#### For the Chantilly cream
* 300 ml double cream
* 50 g sugar
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
#### For the topping
* 50 g flaked almonds
* splash kirsch
* 1 tbsp icing sugar
### Directions
#### Sponge
Pre-heat the oven to 180C. Grease and line a round cake tin as close in size to your serving bowl as you can find.
Whisk together the eggs, sugar, and hot water until tripled in volume. Sift in the flour and salt, and fold in gently with a slotted metal spoon.
Gently pour the mixture into the prepared tin, smooth the top, and bake for 30 minutes. A skewer inserted into the middle of the cake should come out clean when it's done.
Cool in the tin for 10 minutes then remove to a cooling tray.
#### Fruit compote
Put the water and sugar into a pan, heat gently until the sugar has dissolved, then simmer for 3-5 minutes until a syrupy consistency. Add the fruit and cook until it bursts and gives up its juice. Set aside to cool.
For an apple trifle, it's nice to use a mix of cooking apples (that cook down to a pulp) and some finely diced dessert apples that will keep their shape.
#### Custard
Put the milk, cream, and vanilla pod and seeds into a pan and heat until steaming. Leave to infuse for 30 minutes.
Beat together the egg yolks, sugar, and cornflour. Slowly pour the infused milk mixture onto the yolks, stirring all the time. Return to the pan and cook until thickened. Remove the vanilla pod.
Set aside to cool.
#### Chantilly Cream
Whisk together the cream, sugar, and vanilla to a soft peaks consistency.
#### Toasted Almonds
Spread the almonds in a single layer in a baking tray, sprinkle over the kirsch, then sift over the icing sugar. Bake in a 180C oven for around 10 minutes then set aside to cool.
#### Assembly
Trifle is usually served in a decorative glass bowl. Begin by placing your sponge cake into the base of the bowl, then sprinkle over the alcohol.
Next spoon in the fruit compote, followed by the custard. It's okay to complete these stages while the ingredients are slightly warm, but it must be completely cooled before you add the cream.
Once completely cool, spoon over the Chantilly cream then sprinkle with the toasted almonds.
