Hi,
I love your website and your recipes have won over so many of my friends and family. This may seem like a silly question, but when soaking the chillies in buttermilk since we have to let it soak for a couple of days, do you leave it out or do you keep it in the fridge? Will the buttermilk spoil if left out that long? I am anxious to try this recipe because my husband loves these but I never knew how to make them.

I am definitely going to try to make majjiga mirapakayulu after seeing this recipe, Sailu. My husband loves them so much that we go through a crazy amount of these every month! I use these instead of red chillies in the popu/tadka in pappu, especially, mamidikaya pappu (mango dal) and nimmakaya pappu (lime/lemon dal).

Thanks so much for the recipe.

I should try out majjigamirapakaya in tadka while preparing nimmakaya pappu, Aparna.

Sailu,

Lovely post. I like your presentation & pictures.
With Vendi ginnalu, kanakambaralu and Banti puvvulu, ugadi & srirama navami pictures look very traditional and making me nostalgic.

Can you post regarding boodida Gummadikaya vadiyalu. I like the combination of pulusu + gummadikaya vadiyalu + rice + ghee.

yummy. Love them! I have started using these in place of regular dried chillies these days to give a salty tangy kick to a lot of dishes!!

Fantastic pictures!

cheers!

I have never tried making these sailu.. Looking at the pics I am getting an initiative to do it this summer. Los angeles can get very hot in summer. Perfect to make vadiyalu and majjiga mirapakayalu.

Sailu:

Agree completely. Here where I live in the U.S there is enough sun in the summer to make the majjiga mirapakayalu but unfortunately I don’t get the good quality big chilis to make them with .

Yes,RP,I am yet to find someone to says they arent fond of sundried chillis…:)

Thanks for dropping by,Frannie.You have a great blog with loads of ayurvedic recipes.Wonderful!

Thanks Priya.Do give it a try by preparing them at home.

Yes,Diane.Please dont ever make them when the sun isnt too hot.You will have very bad quality dried chillis which serve no purpose at all.

I am doing great,Tin..:)You can have all the chillis..:)

Thanks so much for following my blog and trying out some recipes,Dhanya.Just love it when I hear the recipes have turned out well and I take it as a compliment that you have actually improved on your cooking skills and that you are interested in spending more time in your kitchen.That’s really great,Dhanya!

Oh yes,Karthi,I can relate to your comment having gone thru it myself..:)

Absolutely right,Lera,no authentic meal is complete without a majjiga mirappakaaya!

Summer & sun dried chillies !Sailu, I guess, an authentic Andhra meal wouldn’t be complete without curd Rice and Majjiga Mirapakaayalu combo ….:)

Sailu, These chillies brings me memories of my pregnancy days, infact i craved for this (along with lot others). I didn’t like the store bought ones. Now i have mine(my mom’s) which i bought from my last year India trip, though i am not craving that much:)now!!!
