Chef Tips<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I personally suggest you to use Kashmiri whole red chillies in the preparation of this masala.<\/li>\n
  2. I prefer grinding it till fine, but you may grind it till it is of coarse texture.<\/li>\n
  3. Do not over-roast the ingredients as they tend to burn and impart bitter flavor to the masala making it unusable.<\/li>\n
  4. You may use this masala for Indian Pickling \/ Pickle spice mix in vegetables, paneer, curries, starters or Achari raita.<\/li>\n
  5. You may also add this pickle spice-mix in the Indian non-vegetarian preparations<\/li>\n
  6. Add a little magic of this pickle spice-mix to the filling \/ stuffing of Aloo parathas.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
