Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, coarsely chopped
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with juice
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 ½ tablespoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 ½ tablespoons dried mint
2 tablespoons garam masala
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained
1 (10 ounce) box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
1 (16 ounce) package fettuccine, broken in half
1 cup sour cream
Directions
Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat; remove beef with a slotted spoon to a large pot, reserving drippings in the skillet. Cook and stir onion in reserved drippings until golden brown; remove with a slotted spoon and add to beef in the pot. Stir tomatoes with juice, garlic, red pepper, cumin, chili powder, mint, garam masala, garbanzo beans, and spinach into beef mixture; simmer over low heat for 3 to 6 hours.
Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat; stir in fettuccini and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well; stir pasta into the chili along with sour cream. Serve hot.
Cook's Notes:
Aush is traditionally a noodle dish, but feel free to substitute cooked rice. You can also use a package of cooked small or medium egg noodles instead of fettuccini.
The dish may be frozen before noodles or rice are added.
