Red Hot

Travelling back toward Ahmedabad we passed fields of chillies drying in the sun.
We stopped to see and learn more.

The women sort through the chillies in the shade of the trees, selecting out the chaff and removing stems.

 Some of the chillies are ground on site into chilli powder.

 Beyond the shack and the sorting area were fields of chillies drying in the sun, the scene reminded me of the rice mills in Bangladesh.

 The owner of the chilli 'farm', who kindly showed us around.
