Thai Birds Eye Chilli Pepper - Capsicum Frutescens - 10 Seeds

Bird's eye chilli is a chilli pepper of the species Capsicum frutescens L. in the family Solanaceae, commonly found in Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines and Singapore. It can also be found in India, mainly Kerala, where it is used in traditional dishes of the Kerala cuisine (pronounced in Malayalam as kanthari mulagu). This species (known as kochchi in Sinhalese) is also found in rural areas of Sri Lanka, where it is used as a substitute for green chillies. It is also a main ingredient in kochchi sambal, a salad made using freshly scraped coconut ground with Thai chillies and seasoned with salt and lime juice. The term Bird's eye chilli is also used for the North American Chiltepin pepper, both due to their small round shape and because they're widely spread by birds.
