Green Chilli – Fresh Green Chillies (100g)

Green chilli, called hari mirch in Hindi and mostly known in German simply as gruene Chili, is the unripe form of the chilli pepper: slim, glossy, and firm, with heat that varies noticeably from mild to sharp even within the same batch.

It is used throughout Indian cooking as a base ingredient, slit or chopped into curries, dals and chutneys, or fried whole with salt as a side. It also flavours pickles and tempering (tadka) for dals.

How to use

• Wash and trim the stem before slitting, chopping, or using whole.
• Remove the seeds and inner white membrane for a milder result.
• Store in the fridge in a paper bag or open container; it keeps for around a week.
