WEEKEND RECIPE | SLOW AND SPICY

|
Bonfire Night Slow Cooker Chilli |
|
|
|
It's time to bring the slow cooker out of hibernation for the winter season... and Bonfire Night is this indispensable gadget's perfect coming out party. This deep, rich chilli is the perfect weekend winter warmer – after its been working hard all day (and you haven't), it's ready to go when you are.
You'll notice the addition of dark chocolate in this recipe – no, it's not a typo! Chocolate is a classic South American ingredient in savoury dishes such as this one, and brings yet more deeply umami depth to the party; you won't be aware that it's there, but you'd notice if it wasn't.
You can, of course, make this chilli on your stovetop or in the oven by adapting the process accordingly, but the slow cooker method results in a unique depth of flavour. To make a vegetarian version, use vegetarian mince and cook on medium for just 2 hours.
If you're not cooking for a bonfire night crowd, go with the quantities anyway – this chilli freezes well.
|
|
|
|
Ingredients
800g chopped stewing steak or beef shin 2 large onions, peeled and chopped 2 large green peppers, deseeded and chopped 2 green chillies, finely chopped (deseed if you want a milder chilli flavour) 2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed 2 tsp paprika 2 tsp ground cumin 1 tsp ground cinnamon 2 tsp dried oregano 1-2 tsp red chilli powder (optional, or according to taste) 3 x 400g tins chopped tomatoes 2 tbsp tomato purée 2 tbsp soft dark brown sugar 3 tbsp cider vinegar 450ml beef stock 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 40g dark chocolate (minimum 70% cocoa solids), chopped 2 x 400 tins kidney beans (or, 1 x 400g tin of kidney beans and 1 x 400g black beans), drained and rinsed
|
|
|
|
Method
1. Set the slow cooker to low, medium or high (depending on how slow you want to be). In a large frying pan, brown the meat in batches, making time to really caramelise the meat around the edges and tipping each browned batch into the slow cooker when done.
2. Add all the other ingredients except the beans to the slow cooker, season well, put the lid on and cook on low for 7-8 hours, medium for 6-7 hours or high for 4 hours, adding the beans to the pot for the last hour of cooking.
3. Top each bowlful with a dollop of soured cream and sprinkle with chopped, fresh coriander before serving with rice, cornbread, crusty bread or piles of nachos.

FOUR OF A KIND | BONFIRE TREATS
|
|
|
|
Cheesy Honey-Mustard Hot Dogs (makes 8; easily adapted to vegetarian)
Roast 8 plump sausages of choice in a medium-hot oven for around 20–25 minutes, turning occasionally until thoroughly cooked (or, cook 8 vegetarian sausages according to the instructions on the packet). Meanwhile, combine 100g grated Emmental cheese with 100g grated Cheddar, 3 tbsp wholegrain mustard and 2 tbsp runny honey. When the sausages are cooked, heat the grill to high. Split 8 hot dog buns (brioche buns work well here), fill each with a sausage and top with the cheese mixture. Snuggle them up on a baking sheet and grill for 1-2 mins or until the cheese has melted.
|
|
|
|
Sweet Potato Melts (makes 12; vegetarian)
Preheat the oven to 200ºC/gas mark 6. Prick 6 sweet potatoes all over with a fork, rub the skins with olive oil, season well and bake for 40–45 minutes or until tender. Meanwhile, melt around 50g butter in a small pan, add 1 peeled, crushed garlic clove, 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary and 1 deseeded red chilli (finely sliced) to the pan and simmer gently for around 5 minutes. Take off the heat and set to one side. When the baked sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, split each one into two and scoop out most of the flesh, taking care to leave the skins intact. Mash the flesh with the flavoured butter mixture, 100g Gruyère cheese and 100g Cheddar cheese. Pile the cheesy mash back into the potato skins pushing down as you go to create a firm-ish filling. Top with more grated cheese and a sprinkling of smoked paprika and put back in the oven for around 10–15 minutes until the cheese has melted and the tops are golden and bubbly.
|
|
|
|
Padrón Poppers (makes 24; vegetarian)
Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas mark 5 and line a baking sheet with greaseproof paper. Cut the tops off 24 Padrón peppers to create a 'cup' large enough to fit a teaspoon into, and scoop out (and discard) the seeds and membranes. Combine 450g cream cheese (reduced fat is fine) with 90g grated Cheddar cheese, 1 large peeled, chopped onion, 2 cloves of garlic (crushed), a generous handful of chopped coriander and cayenne pepper or paprika to taste. Season well, stuff the hollowed-out peppers with the cream cheese mixture and bake for around 12 minutes, turning halfway through, until the skins have charred and the cheese is bubbling. Allow to cool slightly (the hot cheese mixture will be very hot!) before serving.
|
|
|
|
Toffee Apple Cookies (makes 24; vegetarian)
Preheat the oven to 190°C/gas mark 5 and line 2 baking sheets with greaseproof paper. Beat 175g softened butter with 140g golden caster sugar until pale and creamy (a hand-held whisk helps here). Add 2 egg yolks, 225g self-raising flour, 50g ground almonds, 90g roughly chopped toffee or fudge, 90g roughly chopped, ready-to-eat dried apple chunks, 1 tbsp milk and 1 tsp cinnamon to the mix, combine thoroughly and roll into 24 walnut-sized balls. Place well apart on the baking sheets (the cookies will spread out while baking) and flatten slightly with your fingertips. Brush with milk and bake for around 8–12 minutes until golden. Leave to firm up for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Milgauss |
|
The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Milgauss was introduced by Rolex in 1956 and designed to meet the demands of the scientific community working around electromagnetic fields.
The Milgauss was the first of its kind, and is capable of withstanding magnetic fields of up to 1,000 gauss and became a popular choice by scientists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva.
Its resistance to magnetic interference comes from a shield inside the case made of ferromagnetic alloys, which protects the movement. This shield consists of two components, one screwed to the movement and the other to the case.
The name Milgauss is derived from the French mille, which means one-thousand, and Gauss, the unit of a magnetic field.
Shown here is the MilgaussOyster, 40 mm, Oystersteel in Z-blue - a most noticeable feature is the lightning-bolt second hand and the green sapphire crystal, the green tint catches the light and it becomes slightly luminescent at the bevelled edges. The baton markers and inlays on the hands also luminesce in low light. Other features are the superb calibre 3131 fully automatic perpetual movement, and waterproof to 100 metres. Elegant and eyecatching for everyday wear as well as a beautiful dress watch.

Petite Maman (U)
Petite Maman is showing at The Little Theatre Cinema as part of the FilmBath Festival. Anyone who saw the amazing Portrait of a Lady on Fire (screened at FilmBath Festival 2019) will be thrilled at the prospect of this new film by its French director, Céline Sciamma.
It’s important not to give too much away here, so suffice to say it is about a young girl who goes with her parents to her recently deceased grandmother’s house to clear away her possessions. In the woods, she meets another girl, who greatly resembles her, and they develop a strong bond.
In his 5-star review for The Guardian, Peter Bradshaw calls it a ghost story, but it is more to do with how past and present overlap, and the possibilities of imagination.
Director Céline Sciamma. Starring Joséphine Sanz, Gabrielle Sanz, Nina Meurisse
Saturday 30 October, 6.45pm. Book tickets at FilmBath.org.uk

THE MAGAZINE KIOSK | PRINT IS READ
|
|
|
|
Curated by Daniel McCabe
Whalebone is our latest US import, one that breezily claims that it started out printing T-shirts and delivering magazines in an old van around Montauk, NY and ‘it went from there. Well, it kind of is still there.’ And that’s pretty the vibe of this indescribable and amiable, vaguely beachy life-style magazine. Each issue is loosely themed, with recent topics taking in wine, sea creatures and the weather. This time it’s the ‘Hippie issue’ which cleverly strings together everything from badges to beekeeping, lunar cycles to tie-dying and deep diving to ‘deadheads’. £10.

|
|
|
Magalleria has moved - The magazine store, which carries almost 2000 rare, specialist and independent titles, is now operating from much larger premises in the centre of the city at 5 Upper Borough Walls BA1 1RG.

So, turn your sound up, sit back and enjoy our horror movie – be warned, it's a scream!

What a Wonderful World Exhibition |

A lifetime of beauty through the eyes of visual artist and nature enthusiast, Robert Cowley (Bob).
For over 60 years Bob has attempted to capture the splendour of the world around him, particularly through studies of plants, landscapes and abstractions of things found in nature. His boundless enthusiasm for the natural world and the practice of art have kept him working almost every day for 6 decades, using everything from watercolours pencils and graphite to lino prints and ink-splattered collage.
Now, his family have come together to help display a small fraction of these wondrous unseen artworks as a homage to their beloved family member.
50% of all proceeds from the exhibition will be donated to Dorothy House Hospice Care.

LOOKING BACK | FADING SIGNS
|
|
|
|
By Andrew Swift |
|
Ghost Signs on Cleveland Terrace |
|
This week, as it’s Halloween, the archive photograph slot makes way for two of Bath’s ghostliest ghost signs, which happen to occupy the same stretch of wall.
The uncanny thing about them is that, if you look at them from one direction, you’ll see the first sign; if you look from another, you’ll see the second.
The signs in question are on Cleveland Terrace and are best viewed from the high pavement in front of Walcot Parade. As you walk west along the pavement, you will see, over the second-floor windows above Martin & Co, the words WALCOT TEA WAREHOUSE. Carry on past the sign, though, look back, and you’ll see the words WALCOT FURNITURE WAREHOUSE.
This is what is known as a palimpsest – one sign painted over another, but both, as the paint has weathered away, now visible. There are several other signs like this in Bath, but none that look so markedly different depending on what angle you view them from.
The Tea Warehouse sign came first, and dates from when the row was built, around 1830. The Furniture Warehouse sign probably dates from around 50 years later.
The best time to view this optical phenomenon is when the late afternoon sun is shining on it, as these two photographs show.
The full story behind this sign, and over 160 others, can be found in Ghost Signs of Bath, available from bookshops or direct from akemanpress.com.

HOUSE PLANTS | DUO OF DELIGHTS
|
|
|
|
Our homes are becoming greener than ever and houseplants have become style accessories as much as exuberant celebrations of the natural world. A new store in Broad Street, Chapter 22 Roots and Records, has taken this chilling-out-among-the-greenery vibe to heart, with a visionary retailing combination of houseplants and rock and roll. We asked plant expert Nicola Taylor to recommend a selection of houseplants that will suit different rooms in the house. Here are two of her suggestions.
