VEGAN/VEGETARIAN PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM CHILI
I strongly recommend to make this chili a day or up to 3 days ahead as the flavors will ripen and intensify, make this as spicy as you like by adjusting the chili flakes, the longer this cooks for the better it will be so don't be afraid to simmer for even 3 hours, and don't be skimpy with the garlic! :)

Steps:
- Stem and seed the ancho chilies and place them in a pot with the stock. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and keep warm. Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat with 1/4 cup EVOO, four turns of the pan. Add the mushrooms to the hot EVOO and brown for 12-15 minutes, then add the garlic, onion, chili pepper, salt and black pepper and soften 5-6 minutes more. Season with a spice mixture of paprika, cumin, coriander and cinnamon. Puree the reconstituted ancho chilies and stock in a food processor. Add the chili stock mixture, beans and tomatoes to the chili. Cook for 15 minutes until thickened, then turn off the heat, cool, cover and chill for make-ahead meal. To reheat: Cover the chili and place over medium to medium-high heat, stirring frequently until the chili bubbles, then uncover and simmer until ready to serve. Combine the avocado, sour cream, lime juice, cilantro, and salt in food processor and process into a smooth avocado-sour cream sauce for stirring into the chili. Serve the chili in shallow bowls and garnish with the avocado sauce, pepitas, if using, and a few tortilla chips, if using.
Tips:
- Choosing the Right Mushrooms: Opt for large, firm portobello mushrooms with intact gills. Avoid any with blemishes or signs of bruising.
- Slicing Technique: Cut the portobello mushrooms into thin strips to ensure even cooking and a better texture in the chili.
- Sautéing the Mushrooms: Cook the mushrooms over medium-high heat to develop a rich, caramelized flavor. Don't overcrowd the pan; cook them in batches if necessary.
- Adding Spices: Use a combination of chili powder, cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper for a flavorful and aromatic chili. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your desired spice level.
- Choosing the Right Beans: Black beans or kidney beans add great texture and protein to the chili. You can also use a mix of different beans for a more varied flavor and texture.
- Simmering Time: Let the chili simmer for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer, the richer and more flavorful the chili will be.
- Garnishing: Before serving, top the chili with your favorite garnishes such as chopped cilantro, diced avocado, sour cream, or shredded cheese.
