The Chilli Bajji is a famous Indian evening snack, the spicy combination gets along with a cup of chai or coffee. This is our take on the famous local chilli bajji’s that are available everywhere in the city of Bengaluru.
Ingredients
- Besan (Gram Flour)
- Long Green chilies
- Ajwain (Carom Seeds)
- Salt
- Oil
- Water
Steps to follow:
- Take long green chillis and slit at the center to get two halves. You can remove the seeds to reduce the spicy aspect but it’s much better with the seeds.
- Now prepare the bajji batter by taking 2 cups of besan, 1 TBSP of carom seeds, and salt (as per taste) in a mixing bowl. Mix all these ingredients making sure everything is combined well.
- Now add water as required slowly, and prepare a lump free thick batter.
- Pour 2 TBSP of hot oil over the batter and mix well for a smooth and silky batter
- Put frying pan with oil for heating.
- Dip the green chilli and coat it with batter completely.
- Deep fry in hot oil.
- Keeping the flame on medium, flip over and fry all the sides. Fry until the bajjis turn crisp and golden.
Note: If you have Baking Soda and Rice flour at home then do put it in the batter. This will make the Chilli bajji crispier and fluffier
