Here is a recipe for chow chow: Six pounds mixed vegetables (cauliflowers, etc.), 32 pints vinegar, 1 dessertspoon ground ginger, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 cup sugar, a few chillies. Let all come to the bgil. Thicken with ¥ cup flour, 2 tab éspoons mustard, 1 oz. turmeric, 1 tablespoon curry powder, and 1 pint vinegar, all mixed smoothly. Boil half an hour. It specifies 6 Ib. of mixed vegetables, and "a few chillies.’ The amount of Chillies to be used just depends on your individual taste. For example, I have a recipe for date chutney using only 2 Ib. dates and 6 chillies! And another one for peach chutney using 3 Ibs. when prepared and as many as 12 red chillies; but it specifies keeping . the chutney a long time to allow the chillies to become "mellowed." I would recommend you to use only 2 or 3 and see how it turns out. If you use a recipe which includes cayenne you might need less chillies.
