Steps:
- Boil 3 cups water in a medium saucepan. Meanwhile, heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add ancho chiles and toast, turning frequently, until fragrant and darkened, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a medium mixing bowl and cover with boiling water. (Use a small bowl or plate to keep submerged, if necessary.) Let stand until chiles are very soft, at least 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place cumin seeds in skillet over medium heat and toast, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Immediately transfer to a mortar and pestle or spice grinder and let cool completely. Grind to a fine powder; set aside.
- Drain ancho chiles, reserving soaking liquid; remove and discard stems and seeds. Place chiles in mortar and pestle with garlic and chipotle chiles, and pound into a thick paste (or pulse in a food processor). Set aside.
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add chopped vegetables and 1 tablespoon salt and cook, stirring frequently, until caramelized and golden brown, 45 minutes to 1 hour. (Reduce heat if necessary to prevent blackening.)
- Add cumin and cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add chile mixture, tomato paste, and 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, reserved chile-soaking liquid, lentils, and 5 cups water. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes.
- Add sweet potatoes, black beans, and black-eyed peas, stirring to combine. Return to a simmer and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until lentils and potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Serve with cilantro and avocado cream.
Tips:
- Use a variety of beans. This will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. Chili is a great dish to experiment with different flavor combinations. Some good options include cumin, chili powder, and paprika.
- Let your chili simmer for a while. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop. The longer you simmer your chili, the better it will taste.
- Serve your chili with your favorite toppings. Some good options include sour cream, cheese, and avocado salsa.
Conclusion:
This vegetarian chili is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. The avocado salsa is a refreshing and creamy topping that adds a pop of flavor to the chili. This chili is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
