Try adding plain yoghurt, if you have it.0

You could also try sour cream.
I have heard that if you add the juice of half a lemon and the juiced fruit half itself and then remove before serving, this also works. I seem to remember that from Trade Secrets.0 -

Add some sugar (or a square or two of chocolate) the sugars help break down the heat from the chillies.Squares knitted for my throw ~ 90 (yes!!! I have finally finished it :rotfl: )Squares made for my patchwork quilt ~ 80 (only the "actual" quilting to do now :rotfl:)0

Wow, great replies thank you all. Haven`t any yoghurt or cream but have cheese, tomatoes and dark chocolate (from a box of Heroes):cool: Will try tomatoes and chocolate first and if that does`t cool it will zap it with the cheese.
Thank

I used to put baked beans in the children's chilli as this helped take the heat out of it and the beans would be eaten were as the kidney beans wouldn't.
I have a block of creamed coconut. I grate some of that into a dish to take some of the heat out.£2 Coins Savings Club 2012 is £4.............................NCFC member No: 00005.........
