Chilli – Arinelli

Arinelli Chilli is a prized local variety producing tiny, aromatic chillies with a sharp, fiery heat much loved in Kerala home cooking. Perfect fresh or dried for pickles, chutneys, curries and traditional remedies, these little chillies pack big flavour. The compact, bushy plants are prolific and crop over a long season. Sow in full sun in fertile, well-draining soil, water moderately, and harvest in about 75–85 days. Easy to grow in pots, grow bags or garden beds, Arinelli is a flavourful, authentic addition to any spice-lover’s garden.
