Aji Amarillo chillies, or Peruvian chillies, have a unique and fruity flavour. Often described as sweet raisin and berry notes. The chilli is a vibrant orange colour and measures 4 inches long. It is then dried in the sun and ground into a fine powder, called “Aji Amarillo molido”.

This chilli pepper is often found in the South American dish ceviche, salsas and Huancaina sauce (spicy cheese sauce). Peruvian cuisine utilises the chillies alongside red onion and garlic to make sauces and stews from the region.

Considered one of Peru’s key ingredients, thanks to its unique flavour, it has gained popularity on the international stage in recent years. Adventurous cooks and chefs around the world are incorporating it into a number of fusion dishes, often through sauces, marinades and dips.

The chillies work well in fruit salads that feature pineapple and mango. Use sparingly to heat up salsas, avocado toast or scrambled eggs!

Aji Amarillo peppers are also really healthy! Rich in nutrients, they contain vitamins A, C, and E, as well as antioxidants. Providing a moderate amount of capsaicin, they also help with pain relief and metabolism boosting properties.
