ABOUT Bharwa Hari Mirch | Spicy Stuffed Green Chillies | GF vegan recipe RECIPE

A heirloom recipe from my Mother's kitchen, goes well with dal-rice, or Parathe or anything like Mathri too.

Instructions

Wash the whole chilies under running water but carefully as we don’t want to loose the stems. Wipe them dry. Let them air dry as well for 15-20 mins. They must be absolutely free of any moisture.
To make the incision, keep the chillies straight on a board or hold them and using a pointed knife, cut them down the centre from the top to the bottom edge, carefully not to split them as you do so.
For the filling: Mix together amchur powder, salt and asafoetida in a bowl.
To stuff: Using a spoon fill each chilly with generous quantities of the filling mix but ensure that the stem and the entire chilly stays intact as you stuff them.
Heat oil in a skillet, once it’s hot, add the stuffed chillies and toss them in the oil for about 8-10 mins. They will shrink as they cook and the filling will ooze out in places.
That’s it, remove them from the skillet and serve them hot or cold with your meal. These keep well in the refrigerator for upto a week in a glass or porcelain jar.
