Prepare for a massive explosion of flavors. Dynamite is a spicy snack that has a juicy inside and a crisp outside, offering you two different textures in one bite. With the addition of cheese, the meaty flavors get a creamy consistency that makes each bite a flavorful experience.
Make sure to remove the seeds if you’re not fond of spice, or scrape them off and add them back in for a spicier kick. After the preparation, you could even freeze it first so you and your loved ones can enjoy it at any time.

- Fry the wrapped green chilies in the heated oil. Make sure to move it around so it cooks evenly. Let it cook until it turns golden.
- While the dynamites are cooking. Prepare the sauce. In a bowl, mix mayonnaise and tomato ketchup. Season with pepper and salt.

- Arrange it on a plate with the sauce. Serve while hot.
When cooking the Dynamite, make sure you don’t crowd the pan so it stays crunchy for a long time, making it a spicy snack that can be enjoyed throughout the day. Listen to the crunch with every bite, enjoy the savory flavor that the filling has to offer, and add all the ingredients you like into the mix to create an even more personalized Dynamite.
