Beware the jalapenos!

On Monday evening I cooked up a batch of apple chilli relish, using some of our jalapeno chillis that we have stacks of in the freezer.  In an attempt to make it kid-friendly, I halved the quantity of chillis that the recipe called for... but didn't count on the potency of those jalapenos.  I had a taste after it had cooked for a little while, and it nearly knocked my socks off.  So I doubled the quantity of apple.  And we've still ended up with a relish that has a decidedly large kick to it.  Definitely not kid-friendly.  I guess I'll have to try with some less potent chillis...
