(Not sure what type of chilli is this but it’s quite commonly used in Malaysian restaurants and quite a bit spicier than regular Bird’s Eye Chilies)

@marche_ck Yeah I think it’s cili api, or what Chinese call 小米辣. The red ones are very bright red in color.

I think this is chili imported from Vietnam. They're more spicy than our locally grown chili. They're also less healthy, apparently...

@Naomikho Oh what are the bad health effects?

They're just poorer quality and not as good for your stomach. I'm not too sure about the details.

Ofc it's not that bad la, as long as you're not eating too much

rakyat@hachyderm.io · 2 pts · 3y (1 reply)

@Naomikho Aha! They are very spicy so cannot eat more than a little anyway.

Haha... As a spicy food enjoyer this is bearable for me. Maybe I should ask my friend to start eating vietnamese chili lol cause nothing is spicy enough for him anymore...
