Capsicum annuum and Capsicum frutescens are the most widely cultivated species in Malaysia. Vegetable processing wastes, such as seeds, have been used as an alternative resource to manage waste and as a food source in the food industry. This research aimed to determine the potential of chilli seed powder as functional ingredient. Following this analysis, the proximate, phytic acid, and mineral were conducted for chemical analysis. Water and oil holding capacity and colour analysis were done...
