Making a curry spicier for one person!

Does anyone know how to turn a curry (such as a Pataks simmer sauce) from mild to hotter for the one person in the family who likes their curries like this!Can this be done by adding something to the pan after taking out the other servings!

get some dried chilli flakes then add some just before serving in our house I also serve fresh finely chopped chillies in fish sauce for the Cambodean half of the family when they come to dinner. Quite funny when serving a traditional roast beef dinner to a Cambodean they tip all the frsh chilli over it and love it otherwise to them its tasteless.

You could buy a jar of Indian hot lime pickle or other hot chutney and serve that for everyone to try.Some of the Indian pickles are brutally hot, so warn your guests.
