It is called evil chilli chutney and is extremely hot. more for using as a paste to add to cooking than a sweet chutney

I was cooking Thai Fish soup last night and as I put on the medical gloves I realised these ingredients were something I was treating with care.
Chilli for obvious reasons, turmeric because fresh turmeric gives a lot of juice when grated and it stains everything it touches.
New Zealand smoked salmon slices surrounded by baby spinach leaves anointed with homemade salad dressing and garnished with tomato slices, finely sliced red onion, baby capers, and slices of hard boiled egg. Sprinkled with dill tops, crushed chilli, lemon juice and lightly salted.
I made a batch of delicious chilli sauce the other day, we love it and use it in preference to bought sauce.
If anyone is interested the recipe (and earlier photo of the sauce) can be found Here
Shot taken for Saturday Self Challenge 19/07/2025 -- Heat .
First idea in the scorching heat was to capture some heat haze , either for the roads , or cars with shimmer coming off of the roofs - could I find any - NO !!
Next idea was looking down the barrel of a heat gun - a crafter's tool a bit like a hair dryer with a super-charger , got a shot but very under whelming !!
Third idea a Scotch Bonnet Chilli one of the hottest chillies around could I find one locally - NO !!
So you will have to make do with the hottest chillies the local supermarket had , pretty tame by Scotch Bonnets standards which in turn is quite mediocre compared to the Carolina Reaper !!!!!!!!!!
The Scoville scale is a measurement of spiciness of chili peppers and other substances, recorded in Scoville heat units (SHU). It is based on the concentration of capsaicinoids, among which capsaicin is the predominant component.
The scale is named after its creator, American pharmacist Wilbur Scoville, whose 1912 method is known as the Scoville organoleptic test . The Scoville organoleptic test is a subjective assessment derived from the capsaicinoid sensitivity by people experienced with eating hot chilis.
An alternative method, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), can be used to analytically quantify the capsaicinoid content as an indicator of pungency.
Unfortunately the obvious choice of a tune is The Red Hot Chili Peppers - not a group I like as a rule - but here is one of their tunes anyway --
