Required Kitchen Tools
Having the right tools on hand makes cooking a breeze. Here’s what I recommend for this recipe:
- Large Pan or Casserole Dish – Perfect for browning the mince and simmering the chilli.
- Wooden Spoon or Spatula – To break up the mince and stir in the seasoning.
- Chopping Board & Sharp Knife – For prepping your peppers, onion, and lime.
- Colander or Sieve – To drain and rinse your kidney beans.
- Measuring Mug – Handy for measuring rice and water.
- Medium Saucepan with Lid – For cooking the brown rice to fluffy perfection.
- Serving Bowls – Deep bowls work best to hold rice, chilli, and all the toppings.
These tools will help make the cooking process smooth and enjoyable, so you can focus on flavour and presentation.
