MIX THE MEATBALLS
In a bowl, combine the mince, the diced Onion (to taste), seasoning, and ½ the NOMU rub. Wet your hands slightly to stop the mixture from sticking to them and roll into 4-5 meatballs.
FRYING FRENZY
Place a pan (with a lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the meatballs and fry until browned but not cooked through, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan.
Chilli CON CAN!
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the sliced Onion and the corn, and fry until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the chopped Chilli (to taste) and the remaining rub. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the cooked chopped tomato, 100ml of water, and the browned meatballs. Once simmering, reduce the heat and cook until reduced and thickened, 10-12 minutes (stirring occasionally). In the final 3-4 minutes, add the drained kidney beans.
TOASTY TORTILLAS
While the sauce is simmering, rinse and roughly chop the chives. In a bowl, combine the sour cream, ½ the chopped chives, and seasoning. Place a pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the tortilla and toast until golden, 1-2 minutes per side. Slice into quarters.
MMMELTED CHEESE
When the Chilli con carne is done, add seasoning and a sweetener. Sprinkle over the grated cheese and cover with the lid to melt, 1-2 minutes.
