Yesterday my parents visited me after so many months. I had a great time with them.I was craving to eat my mom’s food for long time. So I told my mom to prepare this puli pachadi which is the best accompaniment for dal rice/paruppu sadam. Some people call this as Puli milagai thokku. I also had this by mixing in plain rice adding sesame oil. It tasted like puliodharai. I have tried this as a side dish for ven pongal too. Lovely combination it is!!.
When I was pregnant my mom had made this ‘n’ number of times for me as I wanted something tangy those days. Yesterday dal, pachadi , rasam & tindora fry was our lunch. It was yummy .Thank you amma. This pachadi can be stored for 3-4 days when refrigerated. Lets see Puli Milagai preparation below.
INGREDIENTS
For 2-3 people
- Tamarind – Big gooseberry size
- Green chillies – 3 –4 nos (increase if u want more spicy)

|
METHOD
- Soak tamarind in water for 15 mins. Take the extract and set aside.
- Slit the green chillies and chop them into pieces. Chop the onions.
- In a kadai , heat oil and temper with mustard , urad dal , curry leaves.
- Now add the chopped onions and green chillies.
- Saute well and then add the tamarind extract.
- Add the required salt & hing. Let it boil for few mins.
- When it gets thicken, switch off the flame and transfer to a serving bowl.
Enjoy with dal rice !!
|
NOTE
- As the green chillies absorb all the tanginess, we usually eat it along with onions. So I chopped them finely and used here.
- If you are making for kids, just slit the chillies, cook and remove while eating.
- Please add more hing as it gives the flavour for this dish.
