INSTRUCTIONS
TO SERVE
1 Place the beans in a pan with plenty of boiling water and boil fast for
15 minutes.
2 Drain, rinse and put back in the pan with fresh water and simmer for an
hour until tender, topping up with boiling water as necessary. Drain and
rinse.
3 Heat the oil in a large pan, add the onion, garlic, celery and chillies
and cook for 15 minutes until softened and lightly golden. Add the bacon
and cook for 10-15 minutes until the bacon is sizzling and golden. Stir in
the spices and oregano and cook for 1-2 minutes.
4 Add the venison and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring until browned. Stir
in the cocoa, if using, with the kidney beans, tomatoes, tomato puree, bay
leaf and 900ml/1.5 pints of the stock. Bring to the boil. 5 Season with
salt, reduce the heat and simmer for 2-2 1/2 hours, adding the remaining
stock as necessary until completely tender and the venison is covered with
juice. Serve at once with the tortillas, lettuce, cheese and coriander, if
liked.
