1 lb round steak, ground
1 medium onion, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 green bell pepper, minced
2 -3 teaspoons chili powder (we liked it with 2, but up it if you like really spicy)
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon cocoa
1 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 bay leaf
3 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans, do not drain them
1 (16 ounce) bottle tomato passata (or 500ml tetrapak, tomato puree can be subbed if passata is unavailable)
1 (16 ounce) can water (just measure in the tomato sauce can)
8 ounces Pepsi
1/2 cup tomato ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper
Garnishes

sour cream
grated cheddar cheese

1
Brown ground round in Dutch oven/pot over medium-high heat. (There is no need to add any oil to Dutch oven. Initially, the meat may stick a bit, but will unstick as you stir it and its juices are released.) If there is any grease in pot after browning, drain meat in colander and add to pot again.
2
Add ALL of the remaining ingredients and salt and pepper to taste and cook, at a simmer, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until chili is thickened to your taste. (If chili is getting too thick, dribble in a little boiling water) Remove bay leaf before serving.
3
Serve at table with garnishes.

Note: I cut the onion up into chunks along with the green pepper and garlic and minced them in my mini-processor.
