Chili Paste

Chili paste is a versatile hot sauce that can be added to a number of recipes in Chinese cuisine, Thai cuisine, Mexican cuisine etc. While every cuisine uses native chiles and have their own combination of ingredients, this recipe is very basic using only chiles. I have used Indian dry red chiles which can be compared to cayenne red peppers. You can experiment this recipe with any type of chili that is available in your local market.

Quinoa and Roasted Pepper Chili

What's better than this vegan, protein-rich quinoa chili to enjoy on a cold & dull rainy day! Low fat, low calories, cholesterol free; with a toast on the side, this is one guilt-free food that you can go on & on! Besides being loaded with lots of vegetables, this recipe also has shelled edamame which significantly helps in increasing the protein content of this chili!
