This is another gem of a recipe from Mom’s collection.This is yummy and simple to make.

6 green chillies
4 tbsp besan ( gram flour)
1 tsp amchoor powder
1tsp mustard seeds
½ tsp saunf
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
4-6 tbsp of Oil
Salt
Pinch of heeng (asafoetida)
Method:
Wash and pat dry the chillies. Make a vertical slit and de-seed them (you may leave it with the seeds too as at times they are not too spicy) .Now to prepare the stuffing, heat oil in a pan (need a little extra oil as we need to sauté besan) add in the heeng,mustard seeds,salt,amchoor powder,turmeric powder and saunf. Saute for just 2 minutes and add in the besan,stir continuosly so that the besan gets cooked evenly and does not turn too brown.Cook till the besan turns light brown and you get a nice aroma.(the mixture should come together and should not be dry,if need be add a lil oil).
Once done keep aside to cool.Once cool stuff it in the chillies. Take a flat pan and heat a little oil (not much),now sauté the stuffed chillies for 5-7 minutes till its cooked (do not over cook).Take it off from the heat and serve with dal and chapaati.
