Black And White Chili
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cups chopped onions
- 2 large garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 1/2 pounds sliced mushrooms
- 3 medium carrots, chopped
- 1 or 2 large jalapeno chiles, minced
- About 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/4 cup chili powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seeds
- 5 cups mushroom or vegetable broth
- 2 14-oz. cans white beans, rinsed and drained
- 2 14-oz. cans black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 can (14.5 oz.) diced tomatoes

- In a 5- to 6-qt. pot (preferably wide), heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, mushrooms, carrots, jalapenos, and salt. Cover and cook until vegetables get juicy, 5 to 8 minutes. Uncover and cook, stirring often, until mixture begins to brown, 10 to 15 minutes more.
- Add chili powder and cumin; stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in broth, beans, tomatoes, and tomato sauce and bring to a simmer. Add more salt to taste and simmer to heat through and combine flavors, about 10 minutes.
