Notes

  • Adjust quantity of green chillies according to the spice level you prefer.
  • I used long variety green chillies, you can use the regular ones also.
  • Use ginger which has less fibre.
  • Rinse ginger well before use as it might have dirt. Then peel the skin and chop it finely.
  • Use a spoon to peel the skin as it is very easy to peel using spoon.
