mirchi bajjees
Ingredients 1. Gram Flour 250gm (Besan / Senaga Pindi) you will find this in typical Indian Store. 2. Mirchi 10(Green pepper / chilli) long big ones, small ones will be too hot. 3. Veg Oil. 4.

Take nearly 250 gms of GramFlour into a container 2. Add tea spoon of salt and a tea spoon of red chilli powder. 3. Add 0.3 tea spoon of Bicarbonate of Soda. 4. Add water and mix to make a stiff dough, then adding little more water to make a thick batter and leave it for 20-30 mins. 5. Cut vertically one side of Mirchi. 6. Add enough Ajwan Seeds and salt into the mirchi (If you dont like real hotness, you can empty the chilli seeds inside the mirchi). 7. For frying, bring oil to nearly smoking point (I think it is boiling point) in a deep frying pan. 8. Coat each mirchi with the batter by dipping mirchi into batter and drop it into the hot oil. 9. Fry them on medium heat and turn them frequently and when golden brown all around, drain them and remove from the pan. u will more enjoy them when u cut the ready mirchi bajjee and stuff them with pieces of onions and lime water and little and salt before eating . |
