Kitchen Masti Points.

1. While mixing the besan batter you can add 1 tbsp of hot oil for additional crispiness.
2. While selecting the green chilli we have to be bit careful. The dark long green chillis are very spicy so select the chillis which are light green in color.
3. You can eat it with tomato sauce for a tangy taste.
4. See to it that the besan batter is not too watery in consistency.
5. Eat it when it is hot for a relishing taste
6. You can also add 1 tbsp of processed cheese for a more richer taste.
