This smoked chilli butter is wonderfully rich. It smells A-Maz-Ing!!!! Just look at the colour! Doesn't it look like something you want to smear all over your steak.
Not that I would save this just for steak, this is delicious on a swordfish steak or to top off some cooked carrots.
If you like your food spicy then up the chilli content. Our chilli flakes here in Australia tend to be quite spicy so I start off with a teaspoon. But go as blow your head off as you dare 😉
