Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

24 Dried cayenne
Or japone chiles
4 tb 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.
