Bring slowly to a boil & stir continously until boiling. Cook at a boil for 10 minutes and then lower heat to Medium Low for 15 minutes stirring several times. Lower heat again to simmer & cook for 1½ -2 hours stirring frequently. Add remaining cumin after cooking for 1 hour. You may make this hotter by gashing the sides of the Jalapeno peppers & by adding more of them. This recipe when served over rice with fresh, piping hot cornbread is hard to beat! It is excellent when served over scrambled or fried eggs as well. Serves 6-8 persons. ORIGIN: Don Houston's Chili-Pot Circa 1983 Submitted By DON HOUSTON On 10-22-94
