Ingredients: 

> Besan Flour / Chick pea Flour - 5 tbsp        

> Rice Flour - 1.5 tbsp
> Water - 1 cup.
> Chilli Powder - 1.5 tbsp
> Salt - 2 tsp
> Bajji Chillies - 5-6
> Onion - 1 medium - finely chopped
> lime - 1- 2
> Cooking Soda powder - a pinch

• Mix The Besan flour, Rice flour, Chilli powder, Salt and Soda together. Add warm water little by little and mix he batter well till its of Idli Batter consistency.
• Wash the chillies and cut each chilly into 4 parts each. If the Chilly is small, just halve them.
• Heat oil in a Pan for frying. Dip each chilly into the batter, coat it well on all sides and fry them in the heated oil till they turn golden brown and cooked.
• Once you remove the Bajji's, place them on a tissue to absorb the excess oil. Using a knife, split the Bajji vertically so as to make a cavity and retaining the base. Fill this cavity with chopped Onion. Sprinkle little salt and chilli powder on the onion and add Lime juice on top.
• Enjoy when the Bajji's hot with a cup of Tea.

Note: Heat the oil well before frying. Add just a drop of batter to the oil to see if it is heated.
          You can add 1 tsp of Vaamu / Ajwain / Carom seeds or Jeera / Cumin seeds to the batter.
          The Salt and Chilli Powder in the Batter reduces a little after frying.
          Adding more Cooking soda, will cause the Bajji's to absorb more oil.
          Fry just 2 - 3 Chillies, at a time on high flame. As overcrowding will cause the heat to lower
           and absorb more oil.
          For more crispiness, increase quantity of Rice Flour to batter.
