500g minced beef
150g tomato puree

400g tin baked beans
1 onion
1 clove of garlic
1 tbsp. chilli powder
1 tbsp. dried mixed herbs

Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic clove.
Heat the oil in a pan until hot. Add the beef and brown until almost browned, then add the onion and garlic and cook for another five minutes or so.
