Don’t forget that if you live in a country with a favorable climate, the Aji Amarillo plant is hardy and will produce a lot of peppers. Furthermore, it gives a stunning golden hue to any dish, making your food seem much more appetizing. Add the onion and sauté over a low heat for 7–8 minutes until slightly softened, then add the garlic, 2 tbsp of the panca chilli paste and 1 tbsp of the amarillo paste and cook for a further 2–3 minutes until the garlic has softened but not taken on any colour. It will still be spicy, but it won’t leave your mouth burning as the additional ingredients can help take the edge off.
