Milagai Bajji – A must on a Rainy Day!!

Milagai Bajji, I think this word itself would make one drool…Sweet memories of enjoying it in the beach (when i was young) flashes across my mind while writing this..These days we have lot of restrictions to have street food coz of  lower immunity to infections but those days, we really enjoyed them & yet stayed healthy. Amazing…

During a rainy day, it’s a must at my home. Even street vendors make  good business during rainy season.  I love to indulge in this spicy hot snack during rainy days with hot piping tea…hmmmm…it’s beyond words to express… Ok, time for some Bajji action….Try these out and possibly your own memories will come flooding back!

Deep fry in Oil

Take gram flour (Kadalai mavu) and rice flour in the ratio 2 1/2 : 1 (5 tbsp gram flour and 2 tbsp rice flour) and mix it with water to make into a loose paste.Add 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp red chilli powder, 1/4 tsp asafoetida, and saffron(kesari powder) to get the desired colour. Dip the bell pepper  in the flour mixture and deep fry until it is fully cooked.

Serve it with Onion Chutney for best results and to bring some beach memories to your home…:-)
