The difference between crushed chillies and chilli flakes is that chilli flakes are diced and chopped whereas crushed chillies are just that - crushed into small pieces. They are basically the same when used in cooking, they're just prepared in a different way.

Do you grow chillies?

Buy any chilli you want to grow at your grocer or local farmers market. Remove the seeds and allow them to dry out. Plant as you would any other vegetable in your garden. Most chillies are very easy to grow. Chillies are a warm season/climate plant that are normally grown as annuals. They have the same requirements as Capsicums or peppers. The intensity of the chilli 'heat' although varying from variety to variety, is intensified by reduced watering during fruit development. For more information, see the related link below.

How much dried chipolte Chile pepper is equal to fresh chopped?

It depends completely on personal taste or on the tastes of those you are cooking for.In stews, soups and sauces, a good trick is to use the chilli whole and taste the food regularly during cooking. When the desired spiciness is reached, discard the chilli.For salads, stir fries, and other dishes where the chilli is sliced and added to other foods for colour, flavour and heat, again it depends on personal taste. A lot of the heat is in the seeds, so unless you're looking for a very spicy result, split the chilli lengthways and scrape out the seeds before chopping or slicing.Remember, as a rule of thumb, the smaller the chilli the hotter it is. Green chillies are frequently hotter than red chillies of the same variety.To test any chilli for heat, cut off the end and rub it gently on the back of your (clean!) hand, and then lightly put the side of your tongue on the spot. This will immediately tell you how hot the chilli is.If completely in doubt as to how hot your finished dish should be, don't risk causing discomfort to your family or guests: serve a little dish of chopped or sliced chilli for everyone to help themselves. Red and green chillies look good served together in this way.Remember to always wash your hands immediately, in coldwater, after handling chillies, and when you've finished preparing food, use cold water for knives and chopping board as well.Note: I've used the English spelling of chilli because my fingers simply type it that way automatically; in the US you'd spell it with one 'l' and in some places it'd be spelled 'chile'.
