Instructions

  1. Make the tadka: Heat oil in a skillet over medium low heat. Add mustard seeds and cook until they start to pop. Turn heat to low and add the urad dal; cook until golden brown.
  2. Add fenugreek seeds, kashmiri red chilies (dried, broken into pieces), salt, and asafoetida. Stir until the chilies slightly darken. (Watch closely so they do not burn).
  3. Add chopped tomatoes and curry leaves; cook on low 5 minutes, stirring often. The tomatoes should soften and become mushy. Turn off the heat, stir in seedless tamarind paste and allow the tomato pachadi to cool slightly.
  4. Using a stick (immersion) blender, food processor or blender, pulse ingredients to a smooth consistency, slowly adding up to 1/3 cup water as needed. Season to taste with salt or lime juice.
  5. Use as a dipping sauce for vegetable pakora, dosa or idli.

Notes

  • You can substitute 1 teaspoon kashmiri chili powder for the whole chiles. If you can't get kashmiri red chili powder, a good substitute is 3/4 tsp smoked paprika plus 1/4 tsp cayenne powder.
  • You can substitute the tamarind paste with 1 tablespoon lime juice and 1 tablespoon sugar.
