Seasoned Pioneers

‘heat rating guide’

 

Chilli - ‘mild’

the emphasis here is very much on ‘flavour’ rather than ‘spice’ - Great Grandma will definitely be happy with this!
(‘Curry House Equivalent’: Korma / Tikka Masala)   

ChilliChilli - ‘sultry’

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)

okay, getting a wee bit more serious now… expect a fair kick although still very acceptable to the average ‘spice-aware’ palate
(‘Curry House Equivalent’: Rogan Josh / Jalfrezi)

the stakes are raised now… ideal for those who like a big kick with their food
(‘Curry House Equivalent’: Madras)

lives up to its billing… approach with caution, chileheads & spiceaholics only!
(‘Curry House Equivalent’: Vindaloo / Phal)
