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.

    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 Jackfruit Chili

    This could very easily have been a vegan recipe. All I would have had to do was replace the bacon grease with oil, and the beef stock with vegetable stock. But, as I often do, I used what I had on hand. I have had recipes with jackfruit before, and I know it can be made to do a very good...

    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...

    Recipe Frito Pie with West Texas Chili

    We made this back at the end of January 2020 and I didn't take a picture of it for some reason. It was delish though! You can make a portable version by emptying out a bag of Fritos, then layering the chips, chili, cheese, and garnishes to refill the bag. You can use the big bags for 2 or 3...

    You don’t really need to use purple rice to make this. White rice will suffice! But it looks so pretty I couldn’t resist and in truth, I had some purple rice leftover from making Purple Rice Salad with Tuna, Egg and Asparagus. The sweet taste of the peppers and corn contrast with the salty...

    Recipe Smoky Roasted Red Pepper Sauce

    This is something of a discovery for me. This sauce has such a vibrant red colour, the texture is velvety and thick and yet its totally fat free and consequently low calorie. I used it here with chicken - I simply added chunks of chicken breast to the sauce and simmered gently until the chicken...
