Product Information

Our sustainable process begins right at the source, we work directly with local farmers across over 40 countries to ensure our ingredients are of the highest quality.

I usually use 1 tablespoon of hot chilli powder, which gives a nice heat without overpowering. Cumin Schwartz Hot Chilli Con Carne Recipe Mix is bursting with expertly blended herbs and spices, including chilli powder, cumin and cocoa powder, for a deep rich flavour you'll want to try again and again.

One of our favourite things to serve it with is some plain white rice and grated tasty cheese. We also like to add a wedge of lime, some jalapenos and freshly chopped coriander leaves. I would recommend cooking on low for best results. You could cook it on high, but I find that the beef can become a little tough. Cinnamon might seem like an odd ingredient, but trust me, it works! It gives the chilli a lovely, warming flavour. Salt & Pepper

I like to use garlic puree as it's easy. However, you could use freshly chopped garlic cloves or garlic granules in this recipe. Chilli Powder I did this one day when I was feeling very motivated!! Its handy to print off and keep in your handbag for shopping!! Why not try serving with homemade dough balls on the side or cook some padron peppers to serve with? Frozen mince works better for slow cooker chill con carne as it breaks down more and doesn't dry out. Onion

You could also reheat in the microwave, heat for two minutes, stir and then heat in 1-minute intervals until piping hot. You could also add other spices such as smoked paprika, oregano, a splash of Worcestershire sauce or some swear that adding dark chocolate makes it even better!

This recipe mix is high in syns due to the added ingredients like wheat starch, but when using ingredients such as lean beef mince you can keep the meal relatively low in syns. Syn Values Of Schwartz Mixes We use tinned tomatoes in chilli con carne, but fresh chopped tomatoes would work just as well, Tomato Puree Down below in our syn guide, we will take you through why the Schwartz chilli con carne mix is high in syns, syn values of some of their mixes, low syn alternatives and a recipe for making your own SW chilli con carne. Why Is The Schwartz Chilli Con Carne Mix So High In Syns? Overall, Schwartz chilli con carne mix is quite high in syns when made up as a recipe, this meal gets its high syns from the added ingredients in the spices, to keep syns low we suggest using the spice mix itself which only has 1-2 syns and choose low syn ingredients like lean beef mince to keep syns low. The general rule for slow cooker cooking is "low and slow". You should cook most items on the low setting for an extended period rather than cooking on high for a shorter time.
