Chiles are the vegetable. Chili is the meat and bean stew-like concoction.

Possibly in your particular corner of the world - but preferred spellings for Chili/Chilli/Chile vary all over the place.
In fact I imagine the reason you spell the vegetable one way and the recipe the other is that they're both regional variations of the same word from different places too.

I don’t go around telling britons to get rid of their Us or trade in their Zs for Ss. No point in it.

The word is actually straight from the Nahuatl language. Original has a little more of a t at the beginning, like tchee-lee.
