This is hotter than hell and even more delicious than that.
Indeed, it may just change your mind about making curries, as it’s also super fast to prepare. It’ll serve about four people, but you probably won’t want to share too much; the coconut cream and the scorpion pepper pods make quite a pair,
One you’ll crave from here on out.
