My country's cuisine has lots of hot & spicy cuisine ranging from Malay, Indian, Chinese to Indian-Muslim and I'd simply love the pungent and wooff... the sweat it brings out of you... but is Turkish Food can be compared to Indian or Thai cuisine?

Quoting phoena: My country's cuisine has lots of chillies and I'd tasted lots of hot & spicy cuisine before but is Turkish Food can be compared to Indian or Thai cuisine? |
My limited experience of Turkish food is that it is nothing like as hot as Indian or Thai food. Turkish food has plenty of spices but is not generally very hot. I am sure there are exceptions to that but this is my observation.
I also suspect that as Turkia is so geographically huge, there are immense variations in cooking methods across the country!

Well I remember I once bragged to Kadir that I could handle pretty hot spiced food (which is quite true, compared to Dutch people!), and he didn't forget.. so first evening in Izmir he fed him (by his roommate's aunt made) green peppers filled with red pepper sauce. OMG, I really couldn't eat it at once whereas he ate them just pure and at once 
But Turkish cuisine is not as spicy as Indian, generally spoken

Deli_kizin,
next time.. drink something made from milk or yoghurt or slagroom..anything as long as it's milk base with hot and spicy food..NO cold or icy water. It would make it worst!

Or if you don't like hot food - just leave it!!!
Eating food is not supposed to be some kind of challenge :-S

Exactly! Indian, Thai and Mexican food is far more hot than turkish. Like Bod said, turkish -like greek food- has plenty of spices. But not necessarily hot. Cumin, coliander and red pepper are some of the spices used much in the turkish dishes.
The hottest Turkish dish I have ever tasted, was a salad made of smashed tomatoes, hot chilly peppers, onion and parsley. I can't remember it's name but it was delicious. And it's served in every restaurant I ve been, so I never had trouble ordering it. I just point it at the menu or at the fridge
