If you think your meals are not spicy enough, you should serve a teaspoon of red chilli thecha. This Maharashtrian condiment is all you need to infuse a kick to your dish. Here is a quick recipe to try out.
4-5 pandi chillies 10 Kashmiri red chillies 3 tbsp oil 3 tbsp chopped garlic Salt to taste 1 tsp cumin seeds A pinch of hing 1 tsp lemon juice 2 tbsp roasted peanuts
Blend pandi chilli, garlic, Kashmiri red chillies, and other ingredients in a grinder.
Add ½ a cup of water for smooth grinding. The paste should have a semi-coarse texture.
Heat oil in a pan and saute hing and 1-2 Kashmiri red chillies.
Pour the thecha mixture and stir it for 5-8 minutes.
Allow the thecha to cool off and store in an airtight container.
Serve red chilli thecha as and when needed.
