#special - Recently, this traditional Maharashtrian chutney or accompaniment has become my favourite and I love to have it with thalipeeth or chapatti. They are generally had with jowar bhakri and bajra roti. It is also called Hirvi Mirchi Thecha in the local lingo. This spicy & tangy chutney is prepared with fresh green chilies, garlic, coriander leaves / stems and groundnuts.

You can substitute the hot chilies with some green chili pepper if you wish to have less spicy. This Thecha is generally crushed in a mortar & pestle. However, it can also be ground in a mixer jar coarsely. It can be refrigerated for a couple of days to be had later.
