Another solution to get rid of the gloomy rainy weather, to make it warmer after Samosas and Batata Vada is Chilli Fritters or what the Tamilian South Indians would refer to as “Molaga(chilli) Bhajji (fritters)”. It is especially a sight to watch out for in Marina Beach. Aaah! The aroma thats wafts in the beach, women with big round bindi’s sqatting near huge vessels with oil for frying out these hot delicacies, vendors running around calling out “Pattani Manga Sundal” – unforgettable moments these sure are!
The fritters are the best thing to have esp during rainy seasons. And if you cant bear too much heat – its fine, remove the seeds from the peppers and you are good to go.I keep varying the measurements for the batter which is needed for the fritters, but the basic ingredients are as below
Method
1. Add all the ingredients except the peppers in a bowl.
2.Add enough water to make a thick batter – thick enough to coat the peppers.
3.If you dont want it too hot, then slit the chilli in the middle and with the help of a spoon remove the seeds.Take care not to take the hands anywhere near the eyes.:)
4.Dip these chilli’s in the batter, coat it well.
5.Then drop it in the hot oil for frying.
6.Turn and remove when its reddish yellow in color.
7.Serve it as it is or with any chutney of your choice.

You can also mix and put greenchilli paste, ginger, potatoes, fenugreek powder, salt together. Fill the chiili with it…. hope you will like it
Yummu Yummy. Can you suggest fillings for the chilli to make it yummier?
A mashed potato and onion mixture always works
You should add a little soda(meetha soda or eno) that will make them a little fluffy and light…
Good idea
but I try to avoid using soda in my normal day to day cooking as much as possible. I keep that for baking.
I am literally salivating right now.
Wish I cud grab some through the screen 
…9 more days to go! I will be there on 27th afternoon.

Hello! Fantastic web site, I really like your writing style. Very distinctive and concise. On a lot of blogs people just drone on and on, but not you – very nice. I found your site while looking for another one on Google. I don’t have time to read all the articles here right now, but I have bookmarked your site and will visit again very soon to see your latest updates. I love reading about cooking, it is my favorite hobby. The recipes on your site are incredible. I can’t wait to try them out on my family. They think I’m crazy (and maybe they are right lol) when they see me at work in the kitchen. Visit my site if you’d like to read more. Thank you again for a very informative site. Keep up the great work!
Wow looks spicy, hot and yum. In Guntur they add Ajwan in the middle of the Chilli.
*drooool*
Wow, they look so yummmmmmmmm Dhivi..:)) Hugs,

Perfect for this chill weather
Pass it on,very good in cold weather
Looks so inviting….mirchai pakoras as we call in sindhi are real HOT fav.in our community too.We generally let these chillies slitted and stuffed with salt and dry mango powder(amchoor) or salt and lemon juice for few hours b4 frying them,that makes them less hot and more tangy.And i never had added rice flour to the batter..whts its significance?does it makes batter more crisp?
sooo delicious .. its really HOT …
The hotter the better is my motto. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
