Small whole baby fish are called White Bait around these parts.  Normally
dished up floured and deep fried with a slice of lemon.  And of course a
bottle of the local peri-peri sauce.

Thanks for the tips.  Been doing some looking into the "when to plant chiles
question" and found this in the Time-Life Vegetable book... just for the
record.... I suppose I could have looked here first.  I guess I figured it
would only refer to  temperate climates.  Anyway, and I quote...

"In frost-free areas, sow seeds directly outdoors in spring or autumn".

I'll keep you all posted as to what happens.

Speaking about green mangoes, a very popular side dish here is called
"atchar"  -salted, green mangoes bedded down in a chile enhanced oil.  I'll
look around for a proper recipe.
