Steps:
- Crumble meat into a heavy skillet or Dutch oven. Add onion, and half of the spices, except cayenne. Sauté over medium high until meat is mostly browned and onion is tender -about 10 minutes.
- Add tomato sauce and water and second half of spices. Add 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Bring chili to boil and reduce to simmer. Cover and cook for 30 minutes to 1 hour or until meat is tender and flavors have developed. If necessary, add a bit of hot water if the chili cooks down too much and exposes the meat to air. You want the meat to be barely covered with water. You may add more cayenne in 1/4 teaspoon increments until you reach the heat level that suits you best.
- (Optional thickening step: If you need to thicken the chili, add your choice of thickening gums, or corn bran. Oat fiber also works if you can eat oat fiber, as does glucomannan. We like the flavor and texture of this so much as it is, we don't usually bother with thickening it.)
