Where to Sow

Sow seed on the surface of a free draining compost in pots or trays and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite and place at a temperature 18-21°C until seeds germinate.

Remove the seeds from the fruits before cooking, as this will reduce the heat. Alternatively cook whole in dishes and remove the fruit part way through.
