Fried dumplings made of chilli peppers are a popular street snack in South India. It is known as milaga bajji in Tamil and is sold widely on Marina beach and Elliots beach of Chennai. Milaga bajji is prepared by frying chilli peppers that are dipped in chickpea batter. I have given a twist to this recipe by giving it a ball shape.
Ingredients:
Chilli peppers/bajji milaga - 4to5
Chick pea flour - 1 cup
Rice flour - 4tsps
Chilli powder - 2tsps
Baking soda - 1pinch
Salt and oil - as required
Method:
Mix the flours and chilli powder.
Cut the chilli peppers into 1/2 inch rounds. Rub some salt to it and set it aside for few seconds. Then, sprinkle the flour mixture over it. Add little water and mix till the peppers are coated well. Make round balls out of it and deep fry them in hot oil. When they turn crispy remove on an absorbent paper. Serve it with tomato ketchup.
