For those who have visited the Marina beach in chennai , one thing that immediately comes to mind is the' milagai bajji'. Light green chillies are tied like garlands in front of the bajji stalls . These chillies are then dipped in besan flour paste ,deep fried in hot oil and served with red chutney .Needless to say that they are mouth watering... isn't it?![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfcqWrVXiJbF1Qi6ids8tze0Xti_ZqccHK6LY7nWncR63hxNT0dlx8fEOpsdIu7wwca-wfqesc3Nd0MIa5sdrbkVtK7aZfBkP-JhgUQUBdD9Bu508rYHx1FZWzuQUavuZfo9rd2A/s200/P7311402.JPG)
My neighbor prepares this stuffed chilli bajjis often and Iam giving her recipe here. There are many varieties of mild chillies with which u can make these bajjis. I used this type and they were very mild.

For stuffing
Potatoes- 2 medium ,cooked and mashed

Method
Wash the chillies ,make a slit in the center and remove all the seeds. Rub little salt inside the chillies. The chillies I used were very long and so I had to cut them into two.
Mix all the ingredients for stuffing and then stuff the chillies with it.
