Mirchi Ka salan is one of the most famous side dish served with biryani in Hyderabad. It's popularly called as Hyderabadi Mirchi ka salan. Less hot green mirchi is used to prepare this classic side dish. The taste of this side dish is it's rich gravy prepared with fried groundnuts, coconut, sesame seeds. Green chillies are shallow fried in oil which gives good taste. And we need to add good amount of oil to get perfect taste and texture. In many recipes we use cashew nuts paste for gravies but we use ground nuts paste which gives unique taste to the gravy.
Today I am using tamarind juice we can also use curd too. We can also prepare stuffed mirchi ka salan with different stuffing in the same gravy. We can have this Hyderabadi Mirchi ka salan as sides dish for any plain pulao's/ biryani like Peas Pulao, Kashmiri Pulao, Coconut milk pulao etc., and also we can have it with any chapathi's, butter naans, kulchas etc., I had this mirchi ka salan with carrot rice 😋😋.
