"chile" is both an adjective and a noun referring  to the plant and pod
of a hot pepper, as in "chile pepper" (singular)  and "hot chilies"
(plural). On the other hand, "chili" or "chilli" is  a stew-like
mixture. "Chili powder" is a spice blend used to make  chili; it
usually contains a combination of dried ground New Mexican,  Anaheim or
Cayenne chile peppers, as well as garlic, cumin and other  spices.
