Savory Fried Potato with Chili and Sausage
I have a confession to make about these food blogs, and maybe you can guess. I didn't realize till Atala read some of it and demanded an apology. The truth is that we make most of the dishes together, and sometimes, like in this case, he makes a major part of the meal.
For this dish, we already had the chili [see recipe] but because he wanted some carbs, he fried the diced potatoes. BTW, the potatoes came pre-cut and frozen. Still he fried them to perfection, and with the sausages and chili, they were very yummy :)
Good for any meal of the day, breakfast, lunch or dinner. Enjoy!

How to Cook Thick Chili Con Carne - Serve with Pap
Chili is what we call beans porridge in Nigeria, beans stewed in oil, tomatoes, pepper and other condiments. Chili Con Carne is when you add meat to the equation, in this instance minced beef. There are various ways to cook this, as usual, but mostly kidney beans are used more than black-eyed beans. The way I cook this one, you'll have a thick outcome, best served with pap.
Ingredients:
1 pack of 85% ground beef
2 packs of kidney beans, rinsed and drained
