Black Bean Chilli with Crispy Pork and Poblano Salsa

This black bean chilli with crispy pork and poblano salsa is a sophisticated take on a classic comfort food favourite. By using dried black beans and simmering them slowly with fragrant orange peel and earthy Mexican oregano, you create a rich, creamy base that far surpasses anything made with tinned beans. The addition of smoky chipotle adds a gentle heat that permeates the dish, making it an ideal high-protein option for those seeking a nutritious yet deeply satisfying meal.

The dish is elevated further by its vibrant toppings, including a zesty salsa made from charred poblano chillies and a cooling chipotle-infused soured cream. Succulent cubes of pork are braised until tender, providing a savoury contrast to the heartiness of the beans. Whether you are hosting a casual dinner party or looking for a special weekend project, this multi-layered chilli offers a complex flavour profile that feels truly authentic.

Heat olive oil in heavy large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onions and garlic and cook until onions are translucent, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Add chilli powder and ground cumin and stir 1 minute. Add 3350ml water, black beans, dried oregano, and grated orange peel. Bring mixture to boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover with lid slightly ajar, and simmer until black beans are tender, about 2 hours. Add chipotle chillies and season chilli to taste with salt. Simmer until black beans are creamy, mashing coarsely with potato masher to desired consistency, adding more water by 120ml fuls if too thick, and stirring frequently, about 30 minutes longer. Season chilli to taste with more salt. DO AHEAD: Chilli can be made 3 days ahead. Refrigerate uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled.

Char poblano chillies over gas flame or in grill until blackened on all sides. Place in large bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let stand until cool enough to handle, about 20 minutes. Peel, seed, and chop chillies. Place chillies in medium bowl. Add onion and salsa verde. Season to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.

Stir soured cream and minced chipotle chillies in medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate.
