Green chili chop

Method

  1. Wash the green chilies and pierce them several times with a toothpick. Be careful not to split them open — keeping them whole gives a better-looking chop. Soak them in a mixture of soy sauce and lemon juice for 1 hour.
  2. For the batter, add 1 teaspoon turmeric powder and 1 teaspoon salt to the gram flour. Add enough water to make a mixture the consistency of pancake batter. Make sure there are no lumps. Deep-fry the soaked chilies in medium-hot oil after dipping them in the batter. Serve hot.
