Ten Pu La, Tempura? Just sounded Japanese to me, especially "r" and "l" are the same in the language.

I'm familiar with the long green ones, very common in China. We call them "jian jiao"-- pointy pepper, referring to the shape vs. the bell shaped ones, a way of differentiating between hot and sweet varieties.
