This is the small thick variety of spicy chilly which is generally used to sunbask as the skin is thick. A small bite of this sunbasked chilly adds the necessary zing to curd rice or Dal rice. Extremely easy to make, delicious and can be stored for a year.
Ingredients :
- 250 gms short and the thick variety spicy chilly
- Sour butter milk enough to soak them in
- Salt
- Hing/ asafoetida
- Haldi / turmeric powder
Method :
Wash and dry the chillies on a cloth. When completely dry drop them into the buttermilk to which haldi, hing and salt have been added. Allow the green chillies to absorb the Buttermilk for a couple of days. Remove the chillies and dry them in the sun. In the evening toss them inside the Buttermilk and cover them and keep them aside. Repeat the process of sunning them again in the morning. Continue this till all the buttermilk gets absorbed. Dry them for a day more and store them. Deep fry them as required. Serve them with dal rice or curd rice. A tiny bite with rotis is simply Delicious!!
