As explained in the recipe, chilli con carne is literally translated as chilli with meat from Spanish. But with this meat-free chilli, you won’t be missing out on anything. Subbing in soy mince and red lentils, this chilli is just as hearty and robust in flavour as the original, with great texture to boot.

This vegan chilli con carne brings out the depth of flavour with the use of both freshly brewed coffee and cocoa powder to bring out the rich and earthy flavours. It also includes a tablespoon of vegan gravy granules to really enhance the ‘meaty’ flavour. This is a great recipe for those who want to explore the world of vegan meats, and proves that these alternatives can stand up to the original.

If you’re still on the fence on whether you like vegan meat, check out this recipe from Curated Life Studio. Using tri-coloured quinoa as a meat-free substitute, this chill has great texture and bite and the quinoa soaks up the flavour beautifully. Also be sure to add a square of chocolate, which cuts down the acidity of the tomatoes and gives the sauce a mellow richness.
