To begin with this recipe, we must first prepare a few ingredients. You can have dad's chili using 10 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you cook that.

Steps to make Dad's Chili:

1. In a 'chili pot' (with a cover), heat oil to a medium heat, then add garlic and onion. Saute for a few minutes, until fragrant..
2. Add 1Tbsp of oregano, 1/2tsp of cumin and 1tsp of paprika. Stir..
3. Add beef and brown to a pink/brown shade (almost fully cooked). If you choose to 'spice up' seasonings, do it now. I love experimenting with garam masala, savory, ground clove, cinnamon, turmeric, black pepper and ground ginger.
4. Add beans with a 1/4 cup of liquid from cooking or can. Stir. Cover and cook for 5-10min. on med/low heat. (This is when you can dice the tomatoes).
5. Add 1Tbps of oregano, and more paprika or crushed red pepper flakes to taste. Then add tomatoes. Stir. Cover. Continue cooking for 10min..
6. The chili will be 'done' now. But, the longer you let it simmer, the deeper the flavor. Thicken the chili with tomato sauce, or tomato paste, but keep in mind to add more spices to adjust the flavor..
7. For me, I've adjusted 'too spicy' with oregano and hint of basil. I've adjusted 'too mild' with savory and paprika. Have fun!!! Enjoy:-).
8. *If you have never cooked beans from scratch for your chili, I recommend you try it. What a difference!! 1/2 to 3/4cup dried beans is plenty for this recipe. Soak them in 2cups of water over night. Dump the water into your garden in the morning and place the beans in pot with 4cups of water, 2-3 halved garlic cloves, black pepper, paprika and possibly a cinnamon stick or 2. Bring to a boil, turn down to simmer, and cover. Cook for 3-4hours..
