How to make Mirchi (green pepper ) Bhajji
Mirchi Bhajji is a daringly spicy snack which is very popular in these parts ..on a rainy and cold day nothing can make up your moods as this ..i really love this
ocean514, hope you like these ..i made these videos on your encouragement !
here is how it is made.
first off make a tamarind paste ( commercially available is ok ) and mix equal volume of jaggery to it..it should be a thick paste when cool.. next slit green chillies along their lengths, remove the seeds from inside and stuff it with the tamarind and jaggery paste... dip this chilly into a batter made out of chick pea flour ( besan ) with some salt, deep fry this in hot oil till deep brown.. thats it .you have the famous mirchi bhajji
EAT !
tip: be sure to select green chillies that are straight ( not curled )else you cannot slit them,, also be sure to get chillies that are not the hot variety .. you can generally tell by the appearance
caution caution : sometimes the tamarind-jaggery stuffing oozes out in the hot oil while cooking.. this can make the oil splutter violently .. see that this slit part is mostly facing up while frying ...
