Definitely consider removing the seeds of the scotch bonnet if you're not well versed in heat and spice.

Used brown rice instead of basmati. Added a bit more water, maybe another 150ml. Used 200g puree instead of 100g and only had two peppers in to add. Added king prawns and normal prawns with about 25 mins to go. Grilled chicken breasts sliced in half lengthwise and covered in chilli/chilli sauce, to serve on top. AMAZING
