005 - Mirchi Bonda! It Rained Today! :)




The Thought

Well! It rained today! & the only possible recipe I could think of today is HOT HOT BAJJI's that are a perfect serve for cold weather
It not only add's the warmth that is required for the cold breeze but also adds the perfect evening snack!

For this recipe, I however choose just Mirchi Bonda's! (Told you! Its just the perfec evening snack!)



Ingredients

10-15 Bajji Chillies (This is exactly what you need to tell the market fella.. or you mite just end up having the normal chillies)
Besan (Fried Gram Flour) - 1 Measure
1/2 TSP Salt
3/4 TSP Chilli powder - Red
A Pinch of Baking Soda (Ensure you add just a little)
Water
Oil to Fry
Orange Red colorant
A Hungry tummy to eat
& the perfect cold rainy weather!

For the stuffing

Tamarind paste - 2 TSP
Jeera Powder - A Pinch
Coriander Powder - A Pinch
1 TSP of the mixture you would prepare to dip the Chillies


How to Cook

Add Besan, Salt, Chilli Powder, Baking soda, orange red color into a common bowl
Add water and mix well
The mixture should be slightly thick but not too thick or too water-y!
Check consistency regulary
Keep this mixture aside
Now cut the chillies on one side and add the stuffing
Gently dip the Chillies in the besan mixture. Add them immediately to hot oil & let it sizzle
Once you notice the dark red color
Remove them from the oil and place them on a tissue to absorb the excess oil
Serve Hot

Side Add-on's

- Pudina Chutney
- Sauce
- Onions
- Puffed rice

Try making them at your place and let me know how it turned out to be, while I start munching on the ones I have made for today!

Warm Regards
