Notes
You can use a spicy or non-spicy variety of green chilli. If you are in India you can use the big green chillies that we use for making bajji and pickles. Other mild varieties of chillies that you can use are jalapeño for mid-level heat Serrano chilled can be used. If you really like them hot you can use Habanero pepper.If you are using mustard oil always temper it otherwise it may remain more pungent than you may like it.
