I never met a Chilly Fry I didn’t like. There are so many ways to make a chilly fry and I have a few variations on my channel and blog. A few weeks ago I made my friend Viola Gardonis’s Beef spread for Sandwiches. When she sent me the recipe initially, she also mentioned that the same recipe could be used to make a quick Chilly fry and I decided to test it out for myself. I love the ease of preparation of this dish, the meat is cooked in a pressure cooker and then just shredded and cooked with potatoes, onions and spicy.

It couldn’t be easier. Chilly fry is great with bread, roti or rice. I like to serve it with some dhal for a perfect home cooked comfort meal!
