Title: World's hottest Easter Egg?

An Indian restaurant in Surrey(UK) has created a "not for bunnies" Easter egg using three of the hottest varieties of chilli pepper.

India Dining in Warlingham used a ghost chilli, a scotch bonnet and a habanera in the egg, and said it was up to 10 times hotter than a vindaloo.

The restaurant said the egg is so hot it equals 400 bottles of Tabasco sauce, and diners must wear protective gloves.

Not for me  :fum: 

Don't like Sweet and savoury mixed (except sweet and sour) and will only eat mild curries or mild, sweet chilli dishes... :confused:

Not particularly Easter- or egg- related, but I've just ordered a lamb karahi with a vegetable phaal sauce. Hot as hell, guaranteed to burn the mouth and almost fatal if you're unprepared for it.


Now, what should I order for myself :whistler: :lol:

We came to learn in our time in the UK that Indian food is pretty much the English staple. A good thing, too. I don't mind a Beef Vindaloo on the high end of the scale, and I've had hot chocolate from the Woodside factory (although it was quite mild to my taste).

I get a nice kick (pun intended I guess) out of walking up to the chilli sauce guy at the Adelaide Show and asking for his 12+, then looking mildly impressed, THEN standing back and watching others try it and race for the taps.  :lol:

In my travels, I've found the hottest Indian food to be in the UK, not India!!

If I'm not sniffing, and my forehead covered in bullets of sweat, then the curry isn't hot enough.

The MRS just doesn't understand the joy of that particular suffering and looks at me as if I'm from another planet.  :lol:

But it's the next morning when the suffering really begins.  ;)

Ground mustard seed and/or mustard seed oil is an ingredient in some of the hottest curries. On its own, ground mustard is even hotter than a hot chilli I think. About 1/4 teaspoon of the mustard powder in a curry is enough to incinerate your tonsils.

This may be the reason no one has put mustard and chocolate together yet.
