About Green chillies

Green chillies, a staple ingredient in many cuisines, particularly Indian, Mexican, and Southeast Asian, lend dishes a vibrant heat while boosting flavor. These small yet fiery peppers are rich in vitamins A, C, and K, antioxidants that support immune health, skin vitality, and blood clotting. Their capsaicin content, responsible for their spiciness, may aid metabolism, promote cardiovascular health, and help combat inflammation. Low in calories yet packed with essential micronutrients, they add nutritional value without compromising on taste. However, excessive consumption of green chillies can cause digestive discomfort or irritation in sensitive individuals. When used in moderation, they are a healthy way to add spice, complexity, and nutrients to meals. Whether incorporated into curries, salsas, or stir-fries, green chillies bring boldness and heat to a wide array of dishes.
