Every now and then I get a real urge to cook a cake. I don't believe in following recipes and they turn out brilliantly every time. I figure that you put enough sugar and chocolate in anything and it will tast good

That is good logic whizzbang. That is how I look at chilli.
I love chilli and garlic (when I am not working). Here is a
recipe for a Rubyleeangel Special, my chilli potatoes:

olive oil
1 large onion
2 chicken oxo cubes
chilli to taste ( I use a chilli & lime mix from a jar)
boiled potatoes cut into cubes ( as many as you want)

Boil potatoes and cube them. In a frypan fry the other
ingredients together, then add the potatoes when ready and
mix together, serve hot or cold. I have sour cream with
them when having them hot. Very yummy.

You can add garlic to this also if desired.

Hmmmmmmm....that sounds yum!
I absolutely love chilli and garlic!
