Bell peppers are milder and more accessible.

Wash the green chilies and slit them lengthwise without cutting through.

Boil and mash 2 potatoes.

Add crushed cumin seeds, chopped coriander leaves, asafoetida, crushed black pepper, garam masala, ajwain, and salt to the mashed potatoes; mix well.

Stuff each green chili with the potato filling, pressing gently to seal.

Prepare the batter by mixing gram flour, salt, red chili powder, and water to achieve a medium consistency.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan until hot.

Dip each stuffed chili in the batter, ensuring it is well coated.

Carefully place the batter-coated chilies in the hot oil and fry for about 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown.

Remove the fried chilies and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Serve hot with green chutney or tomato ketchup.
