This is basically a judgment call based on your knowledge of the heat tolerance of the specific people who will joining you at your dinner table.

Just looking at the photo, it looks like perhaps 1 teaspoon was used. Adjust this up or down depending on how hot you and your guests love spiciness.

It's easier to add more heat later (additional pepper flakes or a bottle of hot sauce). It is nearly impossible to neutralize heat once it is infused into a dish.

It will be your call.
