Experimental Dinner ...

[sunny-dave]

Cooking chilli beef ... using the first of my homegrown chilli crop.

I've been quite cautious in the quantity used ... just one from each of the four different plants... but it does seem to be 'quite warm' when first tasted ... perhaps it will mellow down a bit as it cooks ... perhaps.

[ what's on your fork tonight? ]

where do they stand on the Scoville scale? Above a certan level you may have to register them with the police.

[sunny-dave]

The labels for the plants were a bit vague ...

[Barmaid]

It will NOT mellow down. It will increase in intensity.

I suggest buying a pot of yoghurt and loo rolls in the fridge.

I'm having haggis with neeps and tatties.

[Mamyalynne]

Beef and barley broth.

[EcclesCake]

You could try the trick of adding a raw potato, also salt tempers heat.

Spag Bol, using my infamous rage recipe (apologies to Mr Carluccio)

[DTCwordfan]

I'd have the yoghurt and loo roll on standby too, Barmaid - for the haggis, neeps and tatties.

[sunny-dave]

Not too bad in the end (pun intended) - the cooking mellowed the fire & some raita helped too.

We will now see what the morrow brings ...

I hope you have a comfortable night, Dave. Not too much turbulence. x
