Process:


1. First we shall make the stuffing paste by grinding the mint leaves,tamarind paste,onion,ajwain and salt.
2. Keep the paste aside.
3. Now cut the mirchi or chillies in the middle and deseed it.(It helps to reduce the hot taste of it) and keep them aside.
4. Put a vessel on the stove and add water and let it boil.
5. In the mean while prepare the batter by mixing all the ingredients mentioned above by slowly adding water.
6. Make sure that the batter prepared should be of thick consistency as it should stick to the chilli when dipped.
7. Now the water is boiled with the required temperature and so you put all the deseeded chillies in it and turn off the flame.
8. Allow the chillies to be in the hot water for about 3mins to make the skin tender and drain hot water and immediately pour cold water on chillies and put aside.
9. Fill the paste in the chilles and while filling put a frying pan on the stove and heat oil in it to deep fry.
10. After the oil is sufficiently heated dip the stuffed chillies in the besan batter and leave gently in the oil pan.
11. Fry them until they are golden brown and remove them on to a paper to absorb the excess oil and serve hot with onion pieces and chutney.
