Prepare Beans: If you opt for dry beans, follow the instructions on the package; soak and boil until tender. Alternatively, you can use canned beans for convenience.
-
Combine Ingredients: In a large pot, add the prepared black beans, pinto beans, and tomato sauce.
-
Add Flavor: Finely chop the garlic and onion, then add them to the pot. Sprinkle in the chili powder for that extra kick.
-
Stir and Simmer: Set the pot over medium flame and stir the ingredients well. Allow the chili to heat up, ensuring all flavors meld together beautifully.
-
Season to Taste: Taste the chili and adjust the seasoning according to your preference. Add more chili powder for extra spice or a dash of salt for balance.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Ladle the piping hot chili into bowls and garnish with your favorite toppings. It’s delightful on its own, but feel free to customize with toppings like avocado, cilantro, or a dollop of sour cream (vegan options available).
Tips:
- For an even richer flavor, let the chili sit overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
