Achari Chilies

My mom used to make green chilies and It compliments perfectly with vegetarian food especially all-time favorite Daal Chawal. We hardly find Pakistani green chilies here maybe once a year but whenever we bought I always make like my mom does(Two ways) !!

let’s make Achari Mirch first together.

Achari Masala Green chilies

Green chilies: 10-12

Masala Ingredients:

Whole Red pepper: 3-5

coriander whole: 1TBS

Aniseed (Saunf): 1TBS

Black Seed(Kalonji ):1/2 tsp

Mustard seed (Rayee Dana): 1/2 tsp

Turmeric powder: 1 Tsp

Salt: To Taste

Tamarind paste: 1/4 cup

METHOD

• Coarsely grind above ingredients in a coffee grinder, mixed it with tamarind paste.
•  Take chili and put a cut on the center
• Now fill the mixture inside the chilies.
• Heat 2 tsp oil and fry it.
• Add 2 tsp of remaining tamarind paste.
• Put chilies on medium-low flame.

Fry it and leave it on low heat with the lid on for few minutes.If you Cant find this Pakistani Chilies I often use Jalapeno Peppers as an alternative.

You can serve hot and also refrigerate it over two weeks in a dry container with a lid on.I also make Achari Bhindi(Okra) with the same method.This is the best thing you can serve along with simple food but unbeatable for sure…try it and ENJOY!!
