Instructions
 

  • Wash and pat dry the green chilies. Slit them lengthwise, remove the seeds if desired, and keep them aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine gram flour, rice flour, turmeric powder, red chili powder, cumin powder, and salt. Gradually add water to make a smooth, thick batter. The batter should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  • Heat oil in a deep pan for frying.
  • Dip each green chili in the batter, ensuring it is coated well. Carefully drop the coated chilies into the hot oil.
  • Fry the mirchi bajjis in batches until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel to drain any excess oil.
  • Serve the mirchi bajjis hot with mint chutney or tamarind chutney.
  • Enjoy!
