Notes

Smoked paprika: If you can't get smoked paprika you can substitute for sweet or piquant paprika. But the smoked stuff gives the best flavor!

Cocoa powder: This is my secret ingredient, cocoa adds richness, depth of flavor, amazing color and umami flavor.

Garlic powder: This can be substituted for onion powder.

Chilli flakes: (Red pepper flakes) Add as little or as much as you like depending on your family's love of spice! You can also substitute this for chilli powder.
