Green Chilies Stuffed and Fried (Set Your Mouth on Fire)

This is a regular at my home. Frankly I cannot have too many of these but my husband can make a meal of these. Try it if you dare!!! My mum's cook (Kanchi) taught me how to make these. Servings are a joke actually ;) I do not know how many will eat a second but I have counted my brother and husband and the like!
