Mirchi Stuffed Bajji is a popular Indian snack originating from South Indian street food cuisine. It features large green chili peppers stuffed with a flavorful filling, typically made with a mix of spices, gram flour, mashed potatoes, or a tangy combination of tamarind and herbs. The stuffed chilies are coated in a seasoned gram flour batter and deep-fried until golden and crisp. While undeniably tasty, Mirchi Stuffed Bajji is a treat best enjoyed in moderation due to its deep-fried preparation, which can contribute to higher fat and calorie content. The gram flour provides plant-based protein and essential nutrients, while the chili peppers offer a boost of vitamins like C and A, along with antioxidants. Vegetarians often enjoy this dish as a hearty snack or appetizer, though its preparation style makes it more indulgent than health-focused. Pair with fresh chutneys for added flavor and balance.
