It's summer and everyone is busy making papadam, pickles and other condiments to last for a year. It is the best utilisation of heat energy which comes for free in summer.
I made these sundried chili in Singapore. I usually make them in small batches.

Salt
as needed
Oil for deep frying

together. Add salt to it and mix well.
3. Stuff this
Ajwain-Jeera powder into chili. Leave them aside for 3-4hrs.

sour buttermilk and mix well. Dip the stuffed chili in the buttermilk. Let it
marinate in buttermilk for a day.

these chili from buttermilk and arrange them over a plastic sheet. Dry them
in hot sun.
6. When completely
dried, fry them in hot oil and use it as a condiment.
