Adding coffee to chilli is new to me but I can definitely see how it could work! My game-changer when it comes to chili has been to (i) char the onion and garlic and some fresh tomato before blending it all up with the soaking water from some dried chilis and (ii) adding a square of dark chocolate to the chili when it's almost done. Both add so much depth of flavour to the dish.
I had no idea! Clearly should have spent more time in Rome! Looking forward to reading your post on this! I learned the chocolate trick from a friend from Mexico.
Any particular sort of white rice ? I usually use basmati for Indian cookery and might use that but my store cupboard has an ever growing range of rice languishing at the back !

You know that chocolate in the tomato sauce is a very Roman thing? I'm writing a post about it. Charred vegetables makes everything better

Well, you've convinced me to put coffee in my next chilli. Praise Jesus.
It is a game changer, trust me.
