Chilli - ‘mild’

the emphasis here is very much on ‘flavour’ rather than ‘spice’ - Great Grandma will definitely be happy with this!

if you like a bit of pepper on your food, you’ll be more than happy with this… spicy undertones but still very approachable
(‘Curry House Equivalent’: Bhuna / Dopiaza / Dhansak)
