Stuffed Chilli Bajji

Hot, Crisp and Spicy.. these are the attributes of the chilli bajji.. This reminds me of the rainy days where a spicy milagai bhajji wit a suitable chutney gives me an enlightening experience.. Milagai bhajjis are basically an andhra recipe and when they are stuffed, the taste is even better.. I tried it out with 2 different kind of stuffings and it tastes great..


Ingredients:
Bhajji Milagai - 5

For the stuffing:

Mustard seeds
Cumin seeds
Urud dhal
salt
Mashed potatoes

And for the batter, u can actually buy the readymade bhajji mix.


Method:

1.Slit the chilli lengthwise and remove all the seeds from them.
2. prepare the bhajji batter with loose consistency.
3.For the stuffing, heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds,urad dhal,cumin seeds and fennel seeds,add the mashed potatoes,curry leaves and salt..Sprinkle little tamarind juice in the end and mix well. The stuffing is our choice.We can also add roasted peanuts.
4. Stuff the chillies with these fillings carefully.
5. Now dip the chillies in the batter and deep fry it..
6. Serve it with coconut chutney.
