Packed full of protein, this dish is perfect for growing kids or as a post-workout recovery meal.
- For something different, ask your butcher for brisket to try with this recipe – I love it. It’s one of the less tender cuts of beef, being a working muscle, but is full of flavour and cooked slowly (like in this recipe) it is absolutely divine.
- This dish can also be made in a slow cooker on low for around 6-8 hours – just transfer everything to the slow cooker instead of putting in a casserole dish. Reduce to 1 cup of stock for this method.
- If using beef mince for this recipe, it can all be done in the pan on the cooktop – simmer everything uncovered for 30 minutes to an hour, until reduced to a thick sauce.
- To reduce the sodium content of this dish use salt reduced stock and tomato paste.

Have made this a couple of times now and it has gone down very well. I do think it needs a bit more chilli (I used a fresh red chilli as well as the powder), and I would not add the sugar in future as I think there is enough in the vegetables.

Hi Gareth,
Sorry to hear you did not enjoy this recipe. This recipe is has been tried and tested in house many times and is an office favourite. Adding a bit more chilli powder would help amp up the heat / spice.

Bland bland bland. This is basically just a recipe for mince.
No heat, hardly any flavour. Avoid like the plague

Preheat the oven to 130°C fan bake or 150°C conventional bake.
Beef
Add another splash of oil to the same pan over a medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, carrot and celery and cook, stirring for 10 minutes until soft. Add the oregano, cumin, coriander, paprika, chilli powder, bay leaf and tomato paste, stir for a few minutes. Add the coffee, tomatoes, stock, beans, capsicum and sugar, combine well and bring to a simmer.
If your pan is ovenproof, cover and bake in the oven for 3 hours, stirring once. Or transfer everything to a covered casserole dish for cooking. See tips for the slow cooker option.
Remove from the oven and season as required.
