little_muffin Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I need help urgently, I have done a mahoosive chilli for us to eat when my hubby gets in and it is far, far too hot. Like vindaloo hot. I have tried to cool it a bit with 2 cans of coconut milk, a lime and another can of chopped tomatoes, none of which have really made a dint in the fire. Can anyone help with cooling ideas??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SummerGirl Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I was going to suggest coconut milk but I see you've already tried that. Serving it with sliced avocado might help a little? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaToMyMunkins Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 How about serving it over a healthy serving of spaghetti squash or cauliflower rice? I love to do that to beef up my veggies for the meal and it will also help to dilute the hot a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleena Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I made a too hot curry and I served it over a baked, halved acorn squash. I toasted the seeds too for a nice and crunchy decoration. Might be too late now but it did even out the heat and the flavors were really complimentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Chili is base, so the best way to balance it out is acid (like lime juice). How much chili is in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
