I tend to use a chilli-drizzle to enhance the flavour of my meals and to make look a little more appealing but generally, chilli flavoured olive oils are 2 Syns per teaspoon, which can significantly increase the per-dish Syn count.
As an alternative, try using a bottle of original Tabasco sauce, which is Syn-free, combined with 3 teaspoons of extra virgin olive oil. Using this Tabasco drizzle reduces the per-plate Syn value to approximately 0.3 “Treat Points” per use.
By doing this, you can easily make dishes that are both tasty and look great while keeping the Syn values manageable.
