Benefits

  1. Rich in Nutrients: Mor Milagai retains the nutrients of green chilies, including vitamins A and C, and minerals like potassium and iron.
  2. Digestive Aid: The buttermilk and salt used in the preparation of Mor Milagai can aid digestion and help maintain gut health.
  3. Probiotic Properties: The fermentation process involved in making Mor Milagai can introduce beneficial probiotics, which are good for digestive health.
  4. Boosts Immunity: The vitamins and antioxidants in the chilies can help boost the immune system.
  5. Metabolism Booster: Capsaicin, a compound found in chilies, can help boost metabolism and aid in weight management.
  6. Anti-inflammatory Properties: Capsaicin also has anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce inflammation in the body.

Uses

  1. Culinary Uses:

    • Side Dish: Mor Milagai is often fried until crispy and served as a side dish or condiment with curd rice, sambar rice, or other South Indian meals.
    • Seasoning: Crushed Mor Milagai can be used to season various dishes, adding a spicy and tangy flavor.
    • Spicy Topping: It can be used as a topping for salads, soups, and stews to add a spicy kick.
    • Flavor Enhancer: Added to various dishes during cooking, it enhances the flavor with its unique taste.

    • Mor Milagai Thokku: A spicy chutney made by grinding fried Mor Milagai with tamarind, jaggery, and other spices.

Preparation and Consumption Tips

  • Preparation: Green chilies are soaked in buttermilk and salted, then sun-dried until fully dehydrated. This process can take several days depending on the climate.
  • Storage: Once dried, they can be stored in an airtight container for several months.
  • Frying: To consume, Mor Milagai is typically fried in oil. Care should be taken while frying, as it can splatter and burn quickly.
  • Serving Suggestions: Often served with curd rice or mixed into yogurt to temper the heat.

Incorporating Mor Milagai into your diet can provide a spicy flavor boost while offering various health benefits. As with all spicy foods, it should be consumed in moderation to avoid digestive discomfort.
