Method:

  1. Clean & remove the stalks of the chillies.

  2. Either sun dry them for a few days or Incase you cannot sun dry just roast it lightly but ensure it does not burn.

3.Roast the rest of the ingredients (except garlic ) separately at a low flame for a few minutes only, until they are a shade darker and starts to get aromatic (the aroma is hard to miss). Remove from heat and let cool.

  1. Combine all ingredients and grind into a fine powder. Sift using a metal sieve.
