Chilies have always been known as ingredients that add spice to Sri Lankan food and without chilies, any Sri Lankan food is incomplete. There are two kinds of chilies found commonly in our household which are green chilies and red chilies. Both have distinct tastes and also have different health benefits. Born as green, when they are dried, they turn red as they lose all the water content and become more pungent. As chilies dry up and turn red, they lose a major chunk of nutrients.
