Sri Lanka Fried Chiles

Recipe Ingredients

24		Dried cayenne
		OR japone chiles
4 tablespoons	60ml	Salt
1		Water
		Oil

Recipe Instructions

Make a brine from the salt and water. Soak the chiles for an hour in the brine. Heat a good quantity of oil. When it's very hot, deep fry the chiles until they are crisp. Drain, salt and serve.

This is the simplest way to fix dried chiles. I am told it is eaten as a snack at movie theaters in Sri Lanka. Since I've never been there, I don't know if it's true.
