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 Yorky Porkie Thai Chili Burgers

    This burger was inspired by our resident "Burger King," Yorky. It is NOT a copy of a Yorky pork burger. It is my interpretation. The patty is ground pork, with diced shallot, garlic and sliced Thai chilis -- mixed into the meat, and rested overnight in the fridge. Instead of ketchup, I made a...

    Recipe Pea sprout & feta soup

    Pea sprout & feta soup Serves 2-3 | Preparation & cooking time 30 min This soup - topped with oven-cooked asparagus and bacon - doesn’t resemble much its inspirer, Crème Ninon. The taste of mixed pea sprouts and feta resembles asparagus, so the cut stalks mainly add some crunch and texture...

    Recipe Chicken Dopiaza

    Dopiaza means 'onions twice' (from Hindi do ‘two’ + pyāz ‘onion’). There are many different versions of this dish with varying amounts of onion. The thing I like about dopiaza is that the second layer of onions adds a sweetness and texture to the base sauce. Its generally a medium hot dish when...

    Recipe Lamb cooked in yoghurt and turmeric.

    This is a rather rich creamy tasting dish. Fresh turmeric has a wonderfully subtle fragrant flavour which infuses into the lamb. The tangy mango powder offsets the richness of the sauce. If you can’t obtain mango powder you could use tamarind paste (adjust the amount, to taste). Ingredients...

    Recipe Chilli Dark Chocolate Cake

    What’s better than a chocolate cake? Well, a chilli chocolate cake, better then if chocolate is the dark one. Just a pinch of chili pepper, it has to be only slightly tantalising, without overdoing. Spices in general should help the taste to enhance, not overwhelming it. You need 20 cm cake...
