Milagu Bhajji (Chillies fried in Chickpea flour batter)
Ingredients
- Bhajji chilli large, light green chilli – 4, halved (I deseeded as I wanted my little one to enjoy this snack. But keep it by all means if you like it fiery and hot.)
- Vegetable oil – for deep frying
Bhajji Mix:
- Besan chickpea flour – 2 cups
- Red chilli powder – ½ tsp
- Salt – to season
- coriander leaves – a handful finely chopped
- turmeric powder – ½ tsp
- sparkling water/soda – add enough to form a thick batter
Instructions
- Make a batter using ingredients given under bhajji mix
- Dip the chillies in the batter to coat evenly. Deep fry in oil.
- Serve with chutney or sauce of choice.
Notes
Cold water can be used instead of sparkling water; I used the latter since it makes the batter light and foamy.
