spice
Kashmiri red chilli powder
Kashmiri Lal Mirch
2.4 g1 teaspoon
7 g1 tablespoon
Ground chilli/paprika ~2.3-2.5 g per level tsp; use 2.4 g.
Instead of Kashmiri red chilli powder
Kashmiri chilli powderUse the same weight; same mild heat and colour. Stir into oil briefly so it does not burn.
PaprikaUse the same weight; milder and slightly less vivid. Good for colour, add a pinch of red chilli powder for heat.
Red chilli powderUse 30–50% of the weight and make up with paprika; much hotter. Add gradually and taste.
