Mulaku Bajji/Chilly Bajji




Bajji's are favorite tea time snacks and there are different verities of bajji's. Mulakku bajji or long green chilly is very common in tea stalls of South India. If you enjoy the heat of green chilly and sip of hot tea do not forget to try this delicious snack.

Ingredients
Gram flour- 1  cup
Rice flour- 2 tsp
Bajji Mulaku/ long green chilly/Banana chilly- 10
Turmeric - 1/3 tsp
Chilly powder- 1 tsp
Asafoetida- a pinch
Tamarind- a small ball
salt 
oil for frying.


Soak and take tamarind pulp and combine with one cup of water and one tsp of salt. ( You can also use lemon juice and salt, but tamarind tastes better). Give lengthwise slit on the long chillies. If you like you can remove the seeds gently without breaking off the stem. Immerse them in the tamarind water for two minutes.
Prepare a batter combining all the dry ingredients to form a dosa batter consistency. Dip chillies in the batter ( squeeze out the tamarind water before dipping) and deep fry in oil till all sides are lightly browned up. Enjoy.
