Two big red ones and a bird's eye. The difference in this one I think was using Thai 7 Spice, plus the red curry paste. I think there was more chilli in there than I'd calculated.
It's a bit of peculiar mixture of my own creation, but:
Chicken onion chopped mushrooms and sweet potato (or other veg to taste (it should have had bamboo shoots but I forgot to buy them) red peppers work well though) 2 big red chillies and 1 bird eye chilli (i.e. what wasn't too shrivelled in the packet) cashew nuts Thai 7 Spice Mix (this is something I haven't used before and is probably what I underestimated, my curries are generally quite hot, just not this hot) coconut milk red curry paste oil milk (to quench the volcano)
I toasted the cashews and fried off the onion. Put the sweet potato on to boil. Then I cut up the chicken and coated it in the spices. I put the red curry in the wok with the oil and sealed the chicken. Added the chillies and the mushrooms, stir-fried them a bit, then added the coconut milk. stirred. Added the onion, sweet potato and cashew nuts. At this point I tasted the concoction and I realised I had a volcano on my hands, so I calmed it (a bit) with some milk. brought it to the boil. shimmered until I got bored of waiting for it to reduce (this is when I was sitting in the other room with my eyes stinging even with the window open).

My sinuses are lovely and clear now though.
