Mushrooms in chilli?
you're just weird. Chorizo fair enough, not sure about bacon though. And definitely not mushrooms.

Until 2 weeks ago, I didn't like mushrooms.
Start by cutting the bacon & chorizo up into small, rough pieces, scissors are best. Fry the bacon on low, before adding the chorizo. About 20 seconds later, add a small glug of vegetable/olive oil, and cook slowly. The oil will turn an orangey red.

After about 5-8 minutes, the bacon and chorizo will be cooked, remove from the pan with a slotted spoon, taking no oil. Then, throw in your chopped mushrooms, and toss the pan so they're well coated in oil. 2 minutes later, add the onion, and cook them on low, so the oil is all soaked up.

Makes the mushrooms fantastic, and the sauce takes a nice bit of spice it wouldn't usually get.
