chilli/chili/chile peppers

Chilli peppers (of all colours) are widely used in many cuisines as a spice to add pungent 'heat' to dishes.
The chilli pepper (also chile, chile pepper, chili pepper, or chili) is the berry-fruit of plants from the genus Capsicum which are members of the nightshade family, Solanaceae. Chilli peppers are widely used in many cuisines as a spice to add pungent 'heat' to dishes. Capsaicin and related compounds known as capsaicinoids are the substances giving chilli peppers their intensity when ingested or applied topically.

    Recipe Spiced Guinness eggs

    These spicy eggs are addictive and versatile. You could simply eat them as they are for a snack. Or maybe stuff them for an appetiser. I used them in a bacon and egg salad with a Guinness vinaigrette (see below). These pickled eggs will keep for months if placed in a sterilised jar. The recipe...

    Recipe Chile con Carne

    Chile con carne simply means " hot peppers with meat", so I seriously doubt there's an authentic recipe. I don't think the dish even exists in Mexican cuisine - but who cares? I love it, my kids love it, and (unfortunately for me because it means I have to cook) their MATES love it! Chile con...

    Recipe Keralan style tomato curry

    Keralan cooking often uses tamarind and coconut milk in curry dishes. This particular dish doesn’t include coconut milk but has a hot, sour and aromatic flavour reminiscent of Keralan cuisine. To me, one important thing here is the slicing of the onions and tomatoes into ‘petals’. If you simply...

    Recipe Clams with pine nuts, sultanas and chilli

    It may seem unusual to use dried fruit with shellfish but I’ve in the past used raisins in a prawn dish with success. The chilli I used here was a very mild one but a hotter chilli would work, though you would need to decrease the quantity. If you wish you can toast the pine-nuts beforehand, but...
