Mati Cili Hidup


Should say the phrase above as you would say "Hidup Malaysia" or "Hip Hip Hurray" .

You know Y?

Cili hidup or cabai hidup has become a controlled item kot.  Selalu cili hidup di letak dalam bakul & placed kat shelf where we can pilih. BUT not this time, cili dah naik setakok, masih dalam bakul, tapi kat tepi taukeh......

Mahal ooo sekarang....

Ok kasi saya empat biji.......

........seringgit lima puluh sen (RM1.50 for 4 pcs cili hidup!)




See? beruk pun terkejut

Ni kira kes dah kena makan dengan tangkai sekali

dah berkudis pun

Toksah (tak usah = do not) makan sambal belacan lah buat sementara waktu nooo

  3. Sally,
    makcik pun selalu tak pernah tanya. tapi that day i asked since my fruit seller friend bagi tau cili up by 3-4 fold.

    Ain,

    Ganti ngan cili padi/cili powderlah sementara. nak buat sambal beli cukup2 je, garnish garnish tu kira tak payah le.

  4. Hello Makcikkantin, ha ha....love your lively humour.
    Holy Smoke! The chillies that EXPENSIVE!
    Makcik, chillies are easy to grow....plant your own...
    keep some, sell to friends some, 6 for rgt 1.20....potong jalan.

    I stayed in PJ, Ipoh, Shah Alam, JB, Subang Jaya...KL...
    and I MUST have chillies at every meal, except breakfast...as well I love planting, see things grow.
    And everywhere I stayed, da tentu ada chillie plants.
    As well 4 angle beans....my neighbours love me, ha ha.

    As well being hardly home, I told my maid to start a garden...she did. And our sambal belachan with home grown chillies, lagi sedap, ha ha.
    Have a nice day, Lee.

  5. Uncle Lee,
    Price hike only recently, at least few months though.
    Oh i grew cili padi few times. First harvest, memang cili padi, second harvest, dia sudah jadi cili adik (shorter), lagi sekali buah sudah very kecik, the tangkai seems longer, donno Y. Lepas ni i go by cili hidup seeds lah & see if it changes from cili hidup to cili padi to cili mati...
    ha ha ha, have a nice weekend uncle.
