Chilly Stir Fry

This is one of the simplest recipes and goes well will most of the meals as a great side dish. The chilly used for making this recipe is on the lower side of Scoville scale. My mom makes this whenever she finds fresh chillies in the market. My grandmother makes similar salted-stir-fried recipes with vegetables like brinjal and bitter gourd. Stir frying with just a little bit of salt out the natural flavors of the vegetables very well. You can try it with the veggies that you like!

Ingredients:

* 2-3 Chilies (the long ones)
* Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
* Pinch of salt




Steps:

1. Cut the chillies in 1" long strips or squares or whatever shape you like. You can also choose to half them along the length.
2. Heat oil in a pan.
   
3. When oil heats up, add the cumin seeds and fry them till they are golden brown.
   
   
   
   
4. Add the cut chilly and fry it for 4-5 minutes (or till the chilly is a little tender). Usually when the chilly is done the skin will get a little wrinkly.
   
   
   
   
5. Chilly stir fry is ready.
6. Serve it with any meal as a side dish. (I like it with rice and dal.)
