As you can see from my graphic artwork, chillies play a
great part in my daily life, I even paint them and create graphics out of them,
(feel free to use this image©, just as long as you attribute it to me.)
My husband loves very hot chilli with just about anything
and everything he eats.
According to him the garlic keeps the mosquitoes from biting
him and the chilli is his daily intake of vitamin C!
Here’s one of my recipes I’d like to share with you.
