I scaled back for one serve and baked them in the oven and as I could not get the specified chilli powder I used a regular ground chilli powder and thoroughly enjoyed that slight punch of the spicy chilli powder and as about third was left over I enjoyed this morning as a hash with a fried egg. Thank you Shadows1.
