Tasteless. How can I get my money back for what should have been lovely crab.

There are a number of our favourite ingredients in this recipe but it just didn't work. The peas overwhelmed the dish and the whole thing was rather unpleasant. Only had a couple of spoonfuls before consigning to the bin.

question

The directions say "add the leeks and chilli and cook for 5 mins" but there is no chilli listed in the ingredients. Is this a typo, or should there be chilli? If yes, how much?

Apologies for the omission. We have now added 1 deseeded and finely chopped red chilli to the ingredients list.
