Method
1) slit green chilies as shown in first picture, taking care that you don't break it into half, carefully remove the seeds.
2) peel & smash potatoes, add all the ingredients for stuffing, mix well.
3) stuff the chilies with potato mixture
4) mix the ingredients for batter with enough water, if you like a thick covering, then the batter should be thicker than the idli batter, or else, it can be thinner like dosa batter
5) heat oil in a kadai/ pan, when it is hot, dip the stuffed chilies in the batter, to coat it well, then fry it carefully in hot oil, you can slightly reduce the heat while it is getting golden brown on both sides. You may fry 2-3 at a time.
6) drain it on paper/ colander, serve it hot with ketchup, chutney or can be eaten plain.
ps- green chilies are a good source of Vit. C. to make this recipe healthy, instead of potatoes, you can use soya granules, soaked, drained or you may use chana dal ground coarse with ginger, chilies, garlic to taste. The choice is yours.
