Simple comfort food recipes to nourish the Soul

February 9, 2007 Chutneys

Spice It Up

Hot is the word you think of when you see a Red Cocktail Dress.

Hot is the word you think of when you see Red chili pepper!

Both Red hot and both irresistible. 🙂

Freshly cultivated Red peppers are available in plenty this season and like I said I cant resist the neatly stacked slender and juicy Red hot peppers in the Foodmart.

When I bought the peppers I wasn’t sure what I would be doing with them!Yesterday when I was making Dosa I wanted to make a quick hassle free Chutney to serve with it and I saw these Red peppers lounging in my fridge.I just picked up an onion, some of these Red Chili peppers and ground them together adding a little salt. For some more flavour I added a tadka (tempering) of mustard and Curry leaves.

Voilà – Fiery Hot Red pepper Chutney was ready in a jiffy!

    Ooo la la la..that’s one spicy HOT chutney!
    Did you de-seed the chillis and was the chutney really HOT or medium spiced? Looks really good! I’d probably add a dash of jaggery..:)
