This has got to be the richest, most indulgent, naughty chilli con carne you will ever taste.

A medley of different flavourful meats, including rich pork sausages, smoky chorizo and beef mince, all cooked down in red wine to bring out the flavours and then sweetened at the end with dark chocolate.

This rich chilli con carne tastes great served with white rice and shredded mozzarella.

First, the oils of the smoked chorizo are released in the pan to cook everything else in.

Then, onions and peppers are gently cooked until soft and golden.

The rest of the meat is added and takes on the flavour of the chorizo.

The rest of the ingredients cook down slowly for an hour, before sweet dark chocolate is melted in at the end.
