MORRISONS has brought back its red-hot Volcanic Vindaloo to help mark National Curry Week.
The Bradford-based firm is selling the super hot curry, priced £2, made with chargrilled marinated chicken breast pieces in an extra hot sauce with naga chilli paste and topped with a chargrilled green chilli.
Naga chillies have a Scoville rating of up to one million – 200 times hotter than Tabasco Sauce or a Jalapeño. Some Naga chilli varieties are hotter than pepper spray and others have been used to develop tear gas grenades.
Carrying a six-chilli warning notice, the Volcanic Vindaloo is also topped with whole green chillies - roasted to intensify the flavour and heat - in the unlikely event that curry fans fancy an even bigger chilli hit.
Morrisons Patak’s Tikka Masala Pizza (pictured above) is ideal for curry lovers looking and priced £2.89.
Made fresh by Morrisons foodmakers on Market Street, the 10-inch stonebaked pizza is topped with onion bhajis, spicy chicken breast, mixed peppers and dollops of Patak's tikka masala sauce - before being finished with a sprinkling of mozzarella cheese. Made to share, it’s perfect for a night in with family or friends.
Customers can pair their favourite dish with the new Burnin’ Bhaji - a sizzling side made with sweet onion spiced with red chilli in a crisp, golden batter, for £1.
