over medium-high heat. Add in the diced
red onion and cook until translucent for about 3 minutes. Add in ½ cup of the
water. Allow it to steam for 5 minutes,
stirring occasionally.
Stir in the ginger, coriander, cayenne pepper, Ancho chili
powder, oregano, dried cilantro, salt, garam masala and tomato paste.
Add the remaining 2 cups of water and simmer for 10 minutes
over medium-high heat. Taste for seasonings and adjust to your likings.
Add in the heavy cream and the chili beans, tahini, and
browned chili meat. Bring mixture to a
boil and then reduce heat to a low simmer for 10 minutes, stirring
occasionally.
Ladle into bowls and garnish with red onion slices, a
sprinkled pinch of garam masala, diced tomatoes, cilantro leaves and slices of
radish and an optional squeeze of lime from a freshly cut wedge.
Note: This chili is awesome also over rice, baked potatoes,
mashed potatoes, French fries, cornbread, waffles, pita bread, biscuits, and/or
