Bajji Mirchi Pachadi

Hi Friend

Today's recipe is a dish which is spicy and tangy i.e ANDHRA BAJJI  MIRCHI PACHADI. This is one of the Roti Pachadi. I made this chutney differently with available ingredients in my kitchen. My grand mother makes this best chutney with little variation you can even imagine.

OK Let us go to prepare this chutney

Ingredients
  • Bajji Mirchi                         10
  • Garlic pods                          10 to 12
  • Salt
  • Turmeric powder
  • Sugar                                   1/2 tbsp
  • Fresh Lemon juice                2 tbsp

For Popu
  • Mustard seeds
  • Cumin seeds
  • Oil                                       4 tbsp
How I did it
  1. Wash and pat dry bajji mirchi with kitchen napkin.
  2. Pound them with pistol and mortar by adding garlic, salt, sugar and turmeric powder into smooth paste.
  3. Take a wok, add oil and let it heat on medium heat.
  4. Then add mustard seeds and cumin seeds let them pop.
  5. Then add pounded bajji mirchi paste and stir in between and fry well for 5 to 6 minutes.
  6. Chilli paste is properly cooked when moisture evaporates and oil starts oozing out.
  7. Check the salt and let it cool.
  8. Finally add fresh lemon juice to the chilli pachadi and mix well.

Store into air tight bottle or jar. See the intoxicating aroma when roasted green chilles fry in oil. Simply mix with streamed rice with dollop of ghee and enjoy it hot. You may enjoy them as spread on toast. Also accompaniment with idly, dosa and upma also.

My Note

Instead of bajji mirchi you can use normal green mirchi also. Normal green mirchi might be hotter than the bigger ones. Adjust the other ingredients accordingly.
This doesn't need tamarind pulp as we are adding lemon juice.
