Today has been a glorious spring day.  The chillies are loving it in the greenhouse (growing at a rate of knotts), the birds are starting to nest in the garden and we’re inside in the kitchen making Indian Fire.
 

Well it’s not all bad being inside; it makes it all that much nicer when you do venture outside into the sunshine to take Cassie, the chillidog for a walk. Oh and boy doesn’t she enjoy that (Mad Dog!).

​Anyway, I thought as it’s been all about Indian Fire today in the kitchen, that I’d give you some info on this yummy sauce;  It can often be overlooking in our range, as it’s neither mild nor rocket fuel, but along with our “Not so Mellow Yellow” it’s my favourite for flavour.


In this creation we use Mango fruit, Orange & Lime Juices, Garam Masala spices together with two chillies; “Fire” and “Jamaican Jerk”, incredibly tasty, fruity and packed full of flavour.  “Jamaican Jerk” is around 130,000 SHUs, where “Fire” is around 572,000 SHUs, so a superhot, but a mighty fine tasting one. ​

Like many of the chillies we grow and use in our range “Fire” and “Jamaican Jerk” seed come from the very talented and passionate chilli’sts extraordinaire, Joy and Michael from Sea Spring Seeds.

​
Formally known as “Mango Mayhem” we changed the name as many thought it was a sweet, dessert sauce, where in fact it’s more like Indian mango chutney, with a bit of poke.

Absolutely delicious with any meats, fish (lovely with fishcakes, yum!), and cheese, mixed into sour cream for a dip or simply as an accompaniment to a curry. 

​But my favourite, well it’s gotta be a bit of bully…… a great bit of local steak from our friends Becky and Russ at Forest Beef, with mushroom, crispy chips & peas. 
​Simple gal really; well a greedy pig who loves her food, especially when it’s great local food of course.


​Have a look for yourselves what some reviewers thought of our sauce and better still, why not give it a try yourselves?   Then you can let us know what you use it with; always love to hear how you use our range.
