    What is the “chilli” - pepper, spice?

      Hi Trina,
      It’s just minced Chilli/Chili/Chile (spelt different in various countries). You buy it in a jar usually near the crushed garlic and ginger.hope that helps!

        This recipe was really good, but WAY too spicy. I have looked and only found the crushed red pepper chilli flakes…2 tablespoons of that is WAY too much heat in this recipe…is there another form of “chilli” that you use? Or a different ingredient?? I am just wondering exactly what you use in your recipe…maybe a brand? Thanks!

        Hi Lindsey,
        I’m from Australia so maybe it differs where you are from but what I used is jarred minced chilli, which is made from 79% percent crushed red chillies (including skin and seeds) as well as some sugar and salt. You can get it in mild or hot. For this recipe I used the mild version which has little kick to it. I just used a supermarket no name brand so don’t have a specific brand name to tell you, sorry. I know the minced chilli here differs from chilli paste or powder which are significantly hotter.
        Sorry for any confusion and that I couldn’t be more specific.
