Chillies may be small, but they pack a punch and can elevate the simplest chicken dishes. Here’s how to use them in your cooking:
- Always slice chillies open lengthwise, remove the seeds, and finely chop.
- Don’t be too enthusiastic. Add chilli in small increments and taste as you go.
- Add chilli to your breakfast eggs or omelette. They’ll wake you up!
- Cool your dishes down by serving yoghurt on the side. Dairy counteracts capsaicin, the active (hot) compound in chilli.
- Take it from us: Never touch your eyes or nose after working with chilli.
