I made this a long time back,almost two years ago. Then when I wanted to post it under basic recipes, I thought it was too simple to find a place here. So I just let it sit in the drafts. Then last week when I went grocery shopping, I found a lady picking up a bottle of chili flakes.
Curiosity got the better of me and I went to check out the price and was I shocked! I was wondering why she wanted to buy it when could be done at home in a jiffy!
This incident made me change my mind.So I came back home with the the thought that I must post this recipe no matter how simple it may seem.
And also this post is for Blogging Marathon #48, Week 1,Day 3., with the theme – Pick one, Do three under food stubs is a category – Condiment stub and this recipe was just the right one for me as I picked it out of my drafts .
Take some dry red chilies in a blender jar and blitz it for a few seconds.If you run it continuously you will end up with chili powder! Wait for a few seconds before you open the jar [as you don’t want to go into a sneezing bout!] and then blitz again till you get the required texture. Store in an air tight container and use as required.
Bon Appetit…
Simple and helpful post!!
Great. .I do make these at times but mostly they are store bought.
I do my chilly flakes this way, simple and less in cost than the store bought ones.

Easy basic recipe. Good one.
I too make these at home. easy and quick.
That's a lovely post. and as you say though it is simple it is a very helpful post
Basic recipe, yet we spend so much to buy it in stores. very well explained 🙂
Very helpful and useful post to make chili flakes.
basic and no-nonsense idea. Sometimes such basic things escape our mind and we pay a pretty penny to buy them.
Agree that you should post even if you think it's simple!…:)
