Chillies is it just me??

Just wondering is it just me or does anyone else look to spice up a normal meal to satisfy the need for a chilli "fix"

I add chilli oil to many things Oriental, and fresh green (or red) chillies to soya sauce, but apart from chilli con carne I can't think of any western dishes to which I add chilli ...

Not normally, Micky, but sometimes get a wee bit of cheese and put a wee bit of chilli sauce on it. Just for a quick hit.

I may be sad but Hey!  :owsome:

I know what you mean... and whilst I haven't added it to my breakfast cereal yet, I have found that for lunch I am choosing to have pasta (with chillies) or pizza (with lots of chillies), Nachos covered in chillies, Hot Salsa (more chillies) and cheese or just cheese on toast... with chillies and a dash of Worcestershire sauce and black pepper.  I have some popular Chocolate wafer mints for general use but also some 85% Dark Chocolate (hidden away) and out on display (nobody else will eat it), a popular confectioner's Dark Chocolate with Chilli.

Other than that and the occasional curries, chilli con carne or burritos, I can't really say I have noticed if I am honest.  :wink:

I eat chillies of some shape or form with just about everything, love them, bacon eggs and superhot sauce for breakfast is amazing.
The only things I don

When I was in Mexico at an all inclusive you could pick stuff to be chucked into an omelet, finely chopped jalape

I used to be a chilli freak, not as much nowadays though. My favourite non-curry chilli fix used to be Geeta's chilli pickle slathered wantonly on an extra-mature cheddar cheese sandwich. Don't see any Geeta's chilli around now though.

When I moved up to London for the first time I stayed in a hostel for a short while and there was a Korean lad there who literally wouldn't eat anything unless there was a liberal dose of bottled chilli-sauce liberally sprinkled on it. Cornflakes with chilli sauce anyone? Oh yes he did!
