Join Fiji-born private chef Kevin Lee on a flavour-packed journey through the world of chilli, heat and culinary heritage.

Travelling across Asia from Singapore to Thailand to Malaysia, he uncovers legendary fiery dishes, rediscovers centuries-old cooking methods on the brink of disappearing, and reveals surprising ingredients behind some of the region’s most intense flavours. We meet the passionate people behind everything from Peruvian ceviche to Tanzanian fish dishes and Thai jungle curries, and discover the incredible range of spices found across cultures. We meet a MasterChef finalist spicing up Javanese classics and the Jewi Perankan communities, whose hot dishes weave together Persian, Arab, Malay and Indian roots.

Along the way, Kevin creates his own unique recipes, inspired by the spice enthusiasts he befriends on his journey.
