Mirchi Bajji ( Milaga bajji)

I am a typical marina beach freak and wander there till it gets dark. The reason , yes ofcourse, the red staged shops where chillis are decorated as their borders and the aroma of mirchi bajji everywhere......
All residents of  Triplicane,Teynampet, Mylapore , Santhome would agree with me in this. ( Other part of chennai can also be included, i have taken the majority ).I dont remember the day I returned without having bajji there. The mirchis , which we get here ,will have no match in their spice level to those we get in marina. Today I went to indian grocery shop and this mirchi attracted well and it reminded me the days in marina. I just grabbed this oppurtunity to prepare this wonderful dish.
