  • Pick and remove stalks from 12-15 dried red chilies. Bring 1 cup water to a rolling boil. Peel 6-8 cloves of garlic and set aside.
  • Add the red chilies to the hot water and set aside for 15 minutes. This will soften the chillies and makes it easier for grinding. In the mean time heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium flame and let cool.
