I think they mean Chilli as a dish, often a meat stew

Basic chili recipe (people from texas can bite their tongue for five minutes one time):

• beans
• tomatoes
• onions
• peppers

A little bit of cumin and salt to taste and you actually don’t need anything else to get something that is recognizable as chili.

I add all sorts of other stuff, but that’s the basics.

Oh i meant chili as in American chili. Beans and ground beef.

Basically, just knowing how to make something easy for a quick meal if you need to.
