Fresh Thai Chillies
We’ve already pictured Dried Red Chillies from the morning market in Suhkothai; here, then, are some of very fresh Thai Chillies, called prik kee noo in Thai. These. chillies are, indeed, fiery hot.

Read about Thai Chillies – find out why they are called “mouse shit chillies” (prik kee noo).
