My Latest Video Hari Mirch Fry:

Key Ingredients: Green Chilies: Select less spicy green chilies for a taste that is both enjoyable and balanced. Avoid hybrid or jalapeño varieties, as they can compromise the authentic taste of the dish. Coriander Seeds: A crucial element in mirch masala, coriander seeds infuse the dish with a wonderful aroma and depth of flavor. Using fresh coriander can further enhance the dish's taste.

Fennel Seeds: These seeds contribute a distinct flavor profile to the recipe. However, use them sparingly, as their strong taste can overwhelm the other ingredients if used in excess. Mustard Seeds: I’ve opted for black mustard seeds in this recipe, but if yellow mustard seeds are available to you, they offer an even more nuanced flavor and are worth using.

Mango Powder: Bringing a delightful tanginess, mango powder is essential for achieving the perfect flavor balance in your hari mirch fry. Garlic Powder: Garlic is a fundamental ingredient in many masalas. I prefer garlic powder here for its long shelf life, but if you choose to use fresh garlic, be mindful that it can spoil more quickly. Chaat Masala: A hint of store-bought chaat masala adds an irresistible flavor and aroma to the dish, enhancing its overall profile.

Mustard Oil:

For those planning to make pickles or instant mirch masala, I highly recommend using mustard oil. Its earthy, robust flavor lends an aromatic quality to the hari mirch fry reminiscent of traditional chili pickles.

Crackle Spices: Incorporating curry leaves, fenugreek, and cumin seeds adds a delightful complexity to the dish. These ingredients are essential for creating layers of flavor, so don’t skip them! Basic Seasoning: Staple seasonings like red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt are indispensable in Asian cooking. In this recipe, I chose Kashmiri red chili powder over regular red chili powder for its vibrant color and milder heat. Tamarind Water: A dash of tamarind water infuses the masala with a tangy richness, akin to the taste of pickled vegetables. If tamarind isn’t available, lemon juice can serve as an excellent substitute.

Yogurt: Adding a dollop of yogurt enhances the creaminess of the hari mirch fry masala while enriching its taste profile.

How to Make Masala Hari Mirch?

Preparation Steps:

Begin by rinsing the green chilies thoroughly and removing their stalks. Carefully split each chili down the center to allow the masala to penetrate.

In a grinder, combine coriander seeds, fennel seeds, and mustard seeds. Grind them into a fine powder,

Then mix in salt, mango powder, garlic powder, and chaat masala. Set this flavorful mixture aside.

Frying the Chilies:

Heat a generous amount of mustard oil in a pan or wok. Add fenugreek seeds, cumin seeds, and curry leaves, allowing them to crackle and release their aromas for about a minute.

Introduce the split green chilies to the pan, frying them for

approximately 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.

Next, sprinkle in turmeric powder and the prepared mirch masala, stirring well to coat the chilies evenly.

Add the tamarind water, mixing thoroughly, followed by the beaten yogurt. Stir everything together until well combined.

Lower the heat and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes on a very low flame, allowing the flavors to meld.

Once your Hari Mirch Fry is ready,

Transfer it to a serving dish. This flavorful masala mirchi fry can be stored in a jar or bottle in the fridge for up to two months.

Providing you with a quick and tasty side whenever you need it!
