Food for a rainy day. Something to spice up the normal daal-chawal. Or just curd rice.
100 gms of Bhavnagari green chillies ( firm springy to the touch, wash, dry , slit & deseeded)
4 tbsp besan ( chick pea flour), 1 tsp each of red chillie powder, dhania jeera powder, garam masala, salt, jaggery,amchur powder or tamarind paste.1/4 tsp haldi, mustard seeds , pinch of asafoetida, 2 tsp oil. Mix it to form a coarse crumbly mixture.
Stuff the chillies with the mixture. Firmly press in the filling.Heat 2 tsp oil. Temper with mustard seeds ( rai) and a pinch of asafoetida.
Cover and cook the chillies on low heat till the skin feels tender.
Serve hot as a side dish with daal - roti or daal chawal.Yummm. Let the skies rain down on us !
