TeakDOOR Mexicali Madness

[Looper]

I have finally got my my shit together and my ducks in a row to take a long overdue swing at Mexican again as I have been promising myself for years.

I used to make a mean Chilli Con Carne back in my 20s but is probably 35 years since I did, so here I go....

Sorry I have not actually made anything yet. I just thought I would start the thread.


While we are waiting for the main course the mexi-thread has been photo bombed by a 1/48 OV-10 Bronco observation plane. Designed for short take-off on improvised jungle runways in 'Nam

And the infamous Mach-2.8 Mig-25 in 1/72, designed as an interceptor for the US supersonic strategic bombers B-58 Hustler and its successors


I will be augmenting the packets with secret spices authentic herbs, but the basic packet usually gets you pointing in the right direction I find.

So not really making chilli or anything at all. Step above a microwave meal, but only just.

From inauspicious beginnings sometimes great dishes grow Willy.

These packets are like learner wheels while I get back on my long-forgotten mexi-bike

I will regain my freehand herbal spicy confidence as my technique matures

[DrWilly]

Sure.

A must have

Jumping Jesus...I can sense the chilli from here !

Are you cleaning out all the accumulated debris in preparation for a colonoscopy ?
