A big-batch, three-meat chili of beef, pork, and chicken, with the beef marinated overnight in burgundy wine, then slow-simmered for hours with beer, Sauterne, and a wallop of chiles. Serious chili for a crowd.

Simplified version of a Malaysian favourite dish. I've cooked this dish for the Malaysia Day celebration at 'Les Roches,' Bluche, Switzerland as a student. It was for the summer batch 1st year to 3rd year students, teachers and admin staff - totalling a little less than a thousand pax perhaps.

Delicious! And simple to make in a large batch for appetizers. As made in Thrace, the soft-dough may be spread into a sheet and cut in squares before baking, or each shaped individually into daintly "bastounakia" (little canes or sticks).
