Recipe - Sri Lanka Fried Chiles

24 Dried cayenne
Or japone chiles
4 tablespoon Salt
1 qt Water
Oil

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. David Cook WALT
