4. Red Chilly - 2 or adjust to your taste
5. Oil - 4 tsp
6. Tamarind Pulp - 1/2 tsp
7. Salt - Needed Qty
Procedure :
1. In a pan, add 1 tsp of oil. Then add Urad dhal and Red chillies.
2. Fry till Urad Dhal turns golden brown. Keep aside.
3. Now, in the same pan add remaining oil and then add washed Chayote peels.
4. Fry in medium flame till the peels turn golden brown.
5. Keep all the ingredients in a mixer jar and grind to a fine paste.
6. Enjoy with hot rice.
