rimfire4969 Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 That does look good. I like mine with chunks of beef instead of mince, also a square or two of dark chocolate added is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall Jamie Oliver doing this many years ago,,,, probably online somewhere. The addition of a small amount of chocolate really does make a difference,,,, sounds odd but you can't actually taste it. Obviously it has to be a certain type of chocolate, not just any old stuff 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnfromUK Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 My chilli - à la Anglaise. Chilli (homemade, but from the freezer), bubble and squeak cakes (homemade and oven baked) and broccoli, carrots, and cauliflower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now there's someone making an effort - Scotch Bonnet or Birds Eye chillies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Scotch bonnet or the tiny 'Birds Eye' - which are both too hot for me. I think (it's been in the freezer a while) it had a mix of the mixed red and green 'chillies' (the ones about finger sized) and some of the little green 'finger' chillies (which are actually smaller than a finger and about my max heat level when de-seeded). If it is a bit 'tame', some chilli powder can always be added, but if it starts out too hot - it's not easy to reduce the heat. It's probably got a few strips of normal bell pepper as well as I like the flavour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can reduce heat by adding Mango Chutney 👍, your Chilies sound like maybe Serrano, I like to add a Bell Pepper as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always use Buldak Hot Chicken sauce, never noticed it adding any Chicken flavour but it has a near perfect sweet/heat effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get my groceries from Ocado and this is their 'cheat sheet' for the types of chilli they sell The big ones are the Fresno or Seranade (which I presume is the same as the Seranado you suggested). The green smaller ones are what Ocado call Finger chillies and are below Birds Eyes, butb they are still pretty hot. I always de-seed.
