This is also completely delicious to schemer all over a side of cod, hake or salmon before grilling and flaking into tortillas for fish tacos. The list goes on……….
Chili Butter
- 200g (2 sticks) salted, softened room temperature butter
- 2 spring onions, finely chopped
- 1 red chili, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp chopped coriander
- zest of 1 lime
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- To make the Chili Butter:
- Combine all of the ingredients together in a bowl and mix until combined.
- Place a piece of parchment paper on the worktop with the long, straight side facing you. Heap the softened butter mixture into the centre in a rough oblong shape. Roll the side of parchment closest to you over the butter mixture, encasing it completely in the paper and roll into a sausage shape. Twist the ends like a sweetie wrapper to bring the mixture together into a tight roll. Place in the fridge to chill. Then just slice and use whenever you are ready.
