METHOD

1. Pour the honey into a frying pan pan along with the chilies, chili powder and salt and bring to a simmer. Keep on a simmer for approximately 5 minutes.

2. Add in the lime juice. Stir until combined. At this stage give the drizzle a little taste test.

3. Turn off the heat and let cool and allow the chili flakes to infuse with the honey.

4. After 15 minutes strain the honey through a fine mesh sieve pushing the chili flakes against the sieve to retain as much honey as possible.

NOTE: This hot honey drizzle will need to be stored in the fridge for two weeks. If you were to omit the lime and add vinegar you can have the honey sit a room temperature.
