Mirchi bada (chili cutlet) is a spicy Indian snack consisting of chili (mirchi) and potato stuffing, served hot with tomato sauce or occasionally with mint and tamarind chutney.
The mirchi bada of Jodhpur, Rajasthan is famous, as the water in that region lends it a unique taste. It combines well with another Jodhpur speciality, mawa kachori, dipped in sugary syrup.
