Note

For a smoother consistency, blend the cooked mixture with a food processor or immersion blender.

Store in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. The flavors will deepen overnight.

If fresh turmeric is unavailable, you can substitute with 1 teaspoon of ground turmeric, added at the end of cooking.

Adjust the amount of red chilies based on your preferred heat level. Removing seeds reduces spiciness.
