CHUNKI MIRCH

By:  Ravi

Special Notes

A quick spicy “add on”

Ingredients:

1 cup green chillies ,chopped into small pieces

½ tsp heeng

2 tsps dhania coarse ground

2 tsps sonf coarse ground

2 tsps khatai

1 tsp garam masala

1 tsp salt

2 tbsps oil

2 tbsps water

Directions:

Heat the oil and add the heeng. Take down the pan from the gas and add the chopped chillies. Put the pan on gas at medium flame and cook the chillies for a few minutes then add all the spices. Keep stirring and turning for a couple of minuets then add the water and cover so the spices can cook and blend. Voila! It’s done!

 The entire process should take no more than 5-10  minuets. Adds a lot of kick and zing to a meal! 

TIPS:

Choose the chilies depending on the tanginess you want. If the chilies are too hot and you prefer a less  strong flavor slicing them lengthwise and scooping out the seeds and the membrane can remove most of the hot property of chilies—but take care to do this with the tip of the knife. Do not use your fingers else they will “burn”.
