    Method

    1. Heat the olive oil in large saucepan. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add the beef and cook over a high heat for 3-5 minutes, until sealed and starting to brown. Add the garlic, chilli powder and paprika and fry, stirring continuously, for 1 minute.
    2. Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato purée, beef stock and sugar. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour 30 minutes.
    3. Stir through the pepper and kidney beans. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for a further 30 minutes. The sauce should be quite thick – remove the lid for the final 10 minutes to thicken, if necessary.
    4. Meanwhile, warm the tortillas on the campfire grill, barbecue or in a low oven and spoon the chilli along the middle, add a little shredded lettuce and the Tex Mex sauces, fold the ends inwards and wrap to secure. Better still allow campers to build their own!
