Recipes, home grown goodness, BBQing and food stuff

@Hooroo Will look at the Facebook group, thanks. Getting a few more seed varieties would be good. Was limited to birdseye for a while there. I made Thai sweet chilli sauce last year, that was easy and better than anything in the shops. Chilli, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, water, sugar, cornstarch for thickening was about it I think. Took about 10 mins to make kept for ages in sealed jar.

It's also good as it has a quasi-tradition that you video your first pick of each variety. One guy, Chilli Gaz, does a really good job of the videos and gets through some super-hots! Justin Rummel, NZ (and I think recent world) chilli eating champ is on the page. Good to follow his comps.

@Hooroo I have hundreds of Carolina Reapers coming along nicely. Preserving in olive oil gives you the added bonus of chilli oil.
What do you do with them? Do you have a tasty go to curry you can share?

@Hooroo How hard core do you want to go? I don't really need a recipe for curries anymore having been something of an addict for decades now but I have a couple of go to's. However you will be in the kitchen for hours
Very hot as long as it is full of flavour

@dogmeat in England I could comfortably eat Vindaloo and struggle with Phal (?) NZ equiv of Vindaloo heat would be laughed out of the empire up North there

Holy crap - they peak at 2, 200,000 SHU!
Habs are about 350,000 for hot one.I thought Habanero's got to 900,000 SHU?

@Hooroo Seems to be quite a bit of variation. I did have a look and it said 100,000 to 350,000.
Apparently a chocolate hab (whatever that is?) can be up to 800,000.Apparently the rule of thumb for superhots is 1,000,000 SHU and above.

Meant to add, all supplies must come from supermarket, obviously!
My above recipe falls off the bone and all supermarket available. Works with leg as well and pork. So long as it’s bone in
