• Make sure to remove the seeds and veins from the chillies to reduce the spiciness.
• Adjust the amount of red chilli powder according to your spice preference.

Storage and Serving

• Stuffed Chilli Chat is best served immediately after frying for maximum crispiness.
• Leftover stuffed chillies can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Reheat the leftover stuffed chillies in a preheated oven or air fryer to regain their crispiness.
