Author: YourHungerStop
Recipe type: Snack
Cuisine: Goan
- Green Chilies: 5-6 big
- Curd: 4 tbsp
- Salt: to taste
- Chickpea Flour (Besan): ¾ cup
- Turmeric Powder: ½ tsp
- Carom Seeds: 1 tsp
- Baking Soda: ¼ tsp
- Rice flour: 4 tbsp
- Chili Powder: ¼ tsp
- Cumin Powder: 1 tsp
- Water: 1 cup
- Oil: for deep frying
- Cut the green chilies into smaller pieces. If you want, you can just cut them into two parts. I prefer making 4 parts.
- Apply curd and salt to taste to the green chilies and keep aside. This reduces the spiciness of the chillies to some extent.
- Heat oil for deep frying in a deep bottomed pan.
- Mix the besan, rice flour, carom seeds, turmeric powder, chili powder, cumin powder, baking soda, salt and water to make a thick paste.
- Dip each mirchi in the batter so as to coat it properly.
- Deep fry till golden brown.
- Serve hot.
You can add or reduce the chili powder based on the spiciness of the green chillies.
