Dinner time was looking like a bit of a usual weekday non-event... untill I found a Bombay Badboy Potnoodle in the cupboard.

It was GREAT! (apart from not realising the red stuff in the sachet isn’t tomato sauce... its something FAR hotter!)

Anyway, along with Peperami Fire Sticks - which I also love, but try to avoid (44% can't be great in large amounts!) what else is worth a try when it comes to hot / spicy food.

Go to your local Indian Takeaway and ask for Chicken Vindaloo- extra hot. Love it, eat it at least twice a month.
If you're feeling particularly brave try a Phall.

Never been a fan of Indian Restaurants - but think I might give the takeaway a bit more of a try though.

My dirty secret! The (very occasional) Bombay Bad Boy! Much nicer than they should be.

Vindaloo and Phall are dishes that have been tweeked to suit the 'post eight pints' English palate. All that ground red chilli powder isn't good for the digestive system.

If you want to taste real hot FLAVOUR as well as heat, order a medium strength curry along with fresh green finger chillies. Scoop up a bit of the dish with a peice of chapati/naan and then bite about 1cm of the chilli.

If you're not into Indian food that much maybe start with a madras wink

(Although if you do decide to start with a Chicken Vindaloo - extra hot or a Phall i'll be there and pay for the meal wink )

The *one* good thing about working in Slough is the abundance of ethnic grocery shops - there is one next door to the local Sainsburys, selling top quality fresh Scotch Bonnet for £6.99 a kilo - the Sainsburys will sell you 4 or 5 peppers in a packet, at the equivalent of about £30 a kilo. The grocer also has every kind of fresh herb and spice you could mention....plus the butchers counter sells fresh goat. Jamaican Goat Curry, with loads of Scotch Bonnet....oh god, I'm hungry now.

Let's face it, Indian cooking is to your taste buds what happy hardcore is to your hifi. Dreadful stuff. They bring out a tray of utter inedible stuff, so far I've had uncured fibreglass and resin, araldite, cat poo, babies nappies pickle and then something meat combined with a sensation of having your tongue molested with a soldering iron.

Absolutely foul shit. End of story.

A buddy and me used to hunt down hot Indian food, until we tried a Phall/Fal whatever. First time we'd had a few beers, and it was hot, damn, hot, real, hot, hotter than the surface of the sun.

So, a week later we tried it again, sober. Maaaaaan, I don't know if was hotter the second time round, but it was all we could do to get it into our mouths, bounce it from tooth to tooth, careful not to let it touch flesh, then swallow it down as quick as possible.

And the next day at work, THE NEXT DAY IN THE KHAZI AT WORK, I gave birth to a new sun, from my a$$hole!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The other guys in the work shop though I was having a heart attack in the cubicle, from the groans and squeals I was giving out, due to the agony of having raw acid coated barbed wire pulled from the very bowels of my r soul.

I've never touched a Fal since that day, some twenty years ago. nono

Which Sainsburys is this grocer next to? We've always wanted to cook Curry Goat! (Not goat curry...)

or if you prefer something spicier, the good old naga chilli which has a much nicer taste imo.
www.extremefood.com has some good hot sauces etc, got 2 bottles of the 16 million reserve (referring to its scolville number), not quite that brave though hehe

Chilliheads - ice cold toilet roll matters.
