Turn up the heat on your hosting.

Entertaining with Chillies is not just a cookbook. It is a bold, witty, and wildly creative guide to transforming ordinary meals into unforgettable experiences.

Nancy Hillary, self-proclaimed Chilli Sorceress, blends humour, science, global food culture, and fearless flavour into a book that teaches you how to use heat with confidence. From mild crowd-pleasers to daring fire-kissed creations, this is your guide to mastering the art of spice without overwhelming your guests or your taste buds.

Inside you will discover:

- How to build layers of heat instead of burning out flavour

- The science behind why we love the burn

- Globally inspired recipes from AfroChilli to Asian spice traditions

- Chilli-infused cocktails, desserts, cheese boards, and sauce bars

- Hosting strategies that turn spice into social magic

- Playful illustrations and storytelling that make learning delicious

Whether you are chilli-curious or a full-blown heat enthusiast, this book shows you how to entertain with flair, humour, and just the right amount of fire.

Because bland food is forgettable.

But a little heat? That sparks conversation.

Nancy Hillary has spent over three decades immersed in the world of music, touring, and live entertainment, shaping the pulse of stages across continents. Raised between England and South Africa, her childhood was rooted in self-sufficient farm life, where creativity, cooking, and gardening were daily rituals led by her spirited mother. Now based in Sydney, Nancy turned lockdown into a launchpad-digging into the soil, the spice rack, and her own stories. Entertaining With Chillies is the fiery first release under her Chilli Sorceress label, born from passion, play, and more than a few chilliinduced kitchen mishaps.
