**Ingredients:**
– 2 cups green chilies (medium-sized)
– 1 cup thick sour curd
– Salt to taste
**Instructions:**
1. **Selecting Green Chilies:**
– Choose fresh, medium-sized green chilies. Wash and pat them dry.
2. **Slitting and Preparing Chilies:**
– Slit the green chilies lengthwise, leaving them attached at the stem for easy handling.
– Optionally, remove the seeds if you prefer a milder spice level.
3. **Coating with Curd:**
– In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the green chilies with sour curd, ensuring each chili is generously coated.
– Add salt to taste and mix again.
4. **Drying Process:**
– Place the curd-coated chilies on a clean, dry surface, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
– Allow them to sun-dry for 2-3 days, turning occasionally to ensure even drying.
5. **Checking for Dryness:**
– The chilies should be completely dry with no moisture left.
– They will have a slightly shriveled appearance when ready.
6. **Storage:**
– Once dried, store the Sun-Dried Mor Milagai in an airtight container. They have a long shelf life and retain their flavor for months.
**Tips for Success:**
– Choose curd with a pronounced sourness for an authentic taste.
– Ensure the chilies are completely dry to prevent spoilage during storage.
– Adjust salt according to your preference but remember the chilies will shrink during the drying process.
