Despite our brother's frequent mention of replanting new chilli plants in his chilli cultivation plot, he never sighted the bare plot until it was overgrown with grass. I went to see the plot one day out of curiosity and found only one bright red Scotch bonnet (nai miris) chilli plant standing in the middle of the ground. I was curious how the tree was saved from the birds with all of the red chillies on it. I came home with all of the scotch bonnets (nai miris). Some people call these "Kavum chillies,(Kavum miris) possibly because they are shaped like a kavum (Srilankan oil cake).
In addition to the picked chillies, there were some bird's eye chillies at home. I was just thinking about what I was going to do with so many chillies because they aren't like regular vegetables. These chillies are typically used in 2-3 pods per dish. I had the brilliant idea of storing half of the chillies in salted water mixed with vinegar. First, I boiled the chillies in boiling hot salted water with a cinnamon stick, a piece of the maze, and a few peppercorns, cloves and cardamom and vinegar before bottling them in the same water. When chillies are scarce, this is one of the traditional methods of preserving them.
Later, I decided to make a sauce with scotch bonnet chillis (nai miris). I also made a similar tomato sauce to use at home last week. I had the idea to make a chilli sauce that could be combined with my homemade tomato sauce to make a variety of dishes.
Since I made the tomato sauce, my brother has been trying every trick in the book to get me to make him some cutlets or rolls to go with the sauce. He must have realised that he wouldn't be able to get it done by me when I noticed him making the cutlets himself and eating them with a lot of sauce. I am confident that he will soon finish the sauce bottle. My brother always says that "The food is there to eat," so I didn't say anything, as in some ways, he is correct. He'd made the cutlets from minced chicken, sweet potatoes, capsicum, and cauliflower.
He had added a lot of salt pickled scotch bonnet chillies to the mixture because he was having this idea to eat the cutlets with tomato sauce. later by mistake, this silly boy put a lot of scotch bonnet sauce instead of tomato sauce, on the plate. I felt sorry for him because he had eaten the spicy hot fiery cutlets with the incredibly hot chilli sauce as well. He never goes easy on any sauce, but always eats a lot of it. Later He was like a fire engine the entire evening, eating hands full of sugar to dull the hot, burning taste in his mouth.
Love you All!
