Cooking Tips

• Choose large green chilies that are not too spicy, as the filling will add heat to the dish.
• Make sure to remove the seeds from the chilies to reduce the spiciness.
• Adjust the spices in the potato filling according to your taste preferences.
• The batter should be thick enough to coat the chilies well, but not too runny.
• Fry the vadas on medium heat to ensure they cook evenly and become crispy.
• You can also add a pinch of baking soda to the batter for extra crispiness.

Storage and Serving

• Jodhpuri Mirchi Vada is best served hot and fresh.
• If you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, place the vadas in a preheated oven or air fryer until heated through.
• Serve with chutney or sauce as a snack or appetizer.
