Thai Food is hot, or Phet as the Thai's say. Not just hot like a good Indian Curry, but bloody hot like eating red hot coals.
Chilli is eaten in some form with almost every Thai dish, large, mild and tasty chilli's right through to little bastard hot chilli's.
The sauce above we had in a Seafood restaurant in Pattaya, as you can see from the picture there are loads of whole garlic cloves, plenty of the little green hot chilli's and even more of the super hot small red chill's. Mix all this with some fish oil, let it ferment until its dangerous and you've a very hot dipping sauce.
It was so hot that I had trouble talking for a few minutes, my whole mouth felt numb. Even Nuch said it was hot!!!
