- Squeeze out the water from grated Cucumber.
- Add all the ingredients into the beaten yogurt and mix well.

I once tasted some fried big green chilies stuffed with mashed potatoes in an Indian restaurant. Unfortunately I can’t remember the name of this dish and I really would like to attempt to make them at home; would it be possible if you could put up this recipe on your site.
Thanks
Love
