Gentle Kick

🌿 Fresh, Fiery… But Not Too Much Lah.

Gentle Kick is a handcrafted green sambal chili paste made for flavor-chasers who crave balance over blowtorch heat. Inspired by traditional Indochili sambal hijau, this vibrant condiment is made with green chilies, garlic, lemongrass, and lime — offering fresh, zesty notes without overwhelming spice.

Perfect for nasi goreng, nasi padang, or even a big bowl of bakso, this versatile sambal elevates everyday meals. Spoon it over grilled seafood, stir it into rice bowls, or try it with your go-to ayam penyet from Lucky Plaza — it’s sambal without the sweat.
