Ooty bajji chilli (light green in colour and big) Gravy - Green Chilli gravy - Side dish for rice, dosa, bread, roti, Paratha

This recipe is from my mom. Even though I love it I don't really make it as it requires tons of oil. And it is very addictive. If it is there I add it to anything I have from my breakfast to dinner. But whenever I visit my mum or she visits me she will do this without fail. It is really tasty and addictive. Here you go with her recipe

Shallots / Small onion - 1 cup (slice them into 2 or 4)

Ooty Bajji chilli - 4

Dry Roast to powder

Dry Red chillies - 5

Peanuts - 4 tablespoon

Sesame seeds - 2 tablespoon

Method:

Dry roast the ingredients under Dry Roast to powder and powder it. Since my mum had this powder I don't have step by step pics for that. Will update it next time

Heat the oil. Fry the Small onions remove it from the oil and keep it aside.
