The tangy gravy is made with roasted peanuts ,sesame seeds, coconut and tamrind along with the basic spices.

The gravy may be thin aur thick depending on the dish you want to serve with. If you are serving with rice or Biryani then make the gravy thin. If you are serving mirchi ka salan with roti or Paratha’s then make it thick.
