Time 50m

Yield Makes 16-20

Number Of Ingredients 9

sunflower oil , for greasing
2 x 400g cans black beans , drained
1 tbsp vanilla extract
6 large eggs
200g soft butter , chopped
200g light muscovado sugar
100g cocoa powder
2 tsp gluten-free baking powder
85g chilli-flavoured chocolate (or plain chocolate), chopped into chunks

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lightly grease a 20 x 30cm brownie tin and line with baking parchment. Blitz the beans and vanilla, 1/2 tsp salt and 2 eggs with a stick blender until completely smooth.
  • Put the butter and sugar in a bowl with the cocoa and remaining eggs, and beat with an electric whisk until creamy. Start off slowly, then increase the speed as you mix (so you don't get covered with cocoa!). Beat in the baking powder, then stir in the bean mixture and fold in the chocolate chunks.
  • Scrape the mixture into the tin with a spatula, level it and bake for 25 mins until firm to the touch. Leave to cool, then cut into squares. Will keep for a few days in a tin at room temperature, and 1 week in the fridge.

BLACK BEAN AND CHOCOLATE CHILI



Black Bean and Chocolate Chili image

I know the title seems somewhat bizarre, but the slight "hint" of semi-sweet chocolate gives this vegetarian chili a real depth of flavor. It reminds me somewhat of a sweet, yet spicy mole sauce. This recipe was adapted from one I found in the "Moosewood Restaurant Celebrates" cookbook.

Time 35m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups chopped onions
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 stalk celery, sliced
1 -2 jalapeno chile, minced
1 tablespoon cumin
2 teaspoons oregano
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 pinch ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
1 1/2 cups chopped bell peppers (red and green are nice)
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (optional)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 1/2 ounces semisweet chocolate (about 1/4 cup)
tofu sour cream or scallion, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté until onions become soft and translucent, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the celery and chile, cover and cook for another five minutes more.
  • Reduce the heat and stir in spices, (cumin, oregano, cinnamon, cloves, coriander, chili powder, black pepper, salt) along with the bell peppers. Cover again and cook for another five minutes. Stir often to keep the spices from burning. If the pan gets too dry add a little liquid from the diced tomatoes, or some water.
  • Next, add the black beans, tomatoes, lime juice (if using) and soy sauce. Let the chili simmer on low for 5 to 10 minutes, until it thickens slightly and flavors combine.
  • Stir in the chocolate. When chocolate has melted, taste to adjust the salt and pepper. Serve with topping of your choice. I like a bit of vegan cheese, sour "cream" and scallions.
  • Chili can also makes a great filling to serve wrapped in flour tortillas, or in taco shells if you prefer.
