[2][3] The dish is made by stuffing a green chili with indian spices, mashed potato, and gram flour, then it is wrapped in besan batter and fried until golden brown.

[4] It is served hot with tomato sauce or occasionally with mint and tamarind chutney.

It is prepared by halving a mirchi (banana pepper), filling it with spices, a coating of mashed potatoes, and gram flour.

Initially, the green chili is fried alongside the potatoes and spices, and subsequently, it is deep-fried with a layer of gram flour coating.

[5] One variation of Mirchi bada is Mirapakay bajji from Telugu states.
