Filema – Chili Oil 250 ml
When a dish needs to be distinctive yet simple, chili does the trick. Filema chili is a flavored extra virgin olive oil with a spicy kick that perfectly enhances pasta, pizza, and vegetables. The 250 ml bottle is ideal if you like to add a subtle spiciness – quickly, without sauces, and without overdoing it, at the common table.
Origin and Composition
Flavored olive oil from the Filema brand, origin: Greece / Crete.
Ingredients: extra virgin olive oil + chili blend (e.g., chili/chili flavor).
Taste and Character
Olive finish and spicy chili note. It works best as a finishing touch – added after the dish is prepared, when the spiciness and aroma are clean and pleasant. A small amount is enough to build flavor, so it's worth starting with a small portion and adjusting to your preference.
Culinary Uses

- pasta: tomato sauces, aglio e olio, dishes with feta
- grill: meat, halloumi, vegetables (finish after removing from the grill)
- oven-roasted vegetables: potatoes, sweet potatoes, cauliflower, peppers
- soups and creams: a dash on top for emphasis
- toast and sandwiches: lightly on bread under toppings
Pairings
It pairs well with tomatoes, feta, and olives, as well as grilled vegetables. In mezze, it's a great match for hummus, roasted peppers, or simple pastes – if you like a spicy accent.
