Desi Red Chilli Powder

Desi red chilli powder adds direct heat, rich colour and a familiar dried-chilli aroma to Pakistani cooking. Use it gradually so you can control the intensity of each dish.

Best for: curries, daal, marinades, BBQ, chutneys, pickles and homemade spice blends. Bloom briefly in oil for deeper colour, taking care not to scorch the powder.

Ingredient: ground dried red chilli.

Storage: Reseal tightly after use and keep in a cool, dry place away from heat, sunlight and moisture.
