Directions
Hint: to test chili pod's heat, take a small nibble of dry chili in your mouth, when cooked, it will about double in strength.
Brown hamburger meat in a large skillet.
While browning, make chili paste.
Take 6 to 8 dried chili pods, remove some seeds, leave some in for flavor. Remove stems and put in blender with about ½ cup warm water or so just enough to make a paste. Too wet will be difficult.
When hamburger meat is browned, drain fat.
Add chili paste, oregano, cumin and garlic cloves.
Add salt to taste. Brown mixture well, don't burn!
Add 4 tablespoons of flour. Brown this, immediately remove from heat.
In another large saucepan, add tomato sauce and red wine.
Add browned mixture. Simmer, simmer, simmer over low heat (3 hours or more). Can also be done in a slow cooker.
