My mom used to make this pacchi pulusu specially in summer when scorching heat of Hyderabad makes you crave for something light and less spicy. I totally love this recipe!

Jaggery/ Sugar - 1/4 tbsp
Dry Red Chillies - 2
Sesame seeds - 1 tbsp
Mustard Seeds - 1 Teaspoon
Curry Leaves - 5 - 6
Jeera - 1 Teaspoon
Oil - 2 Teaspoons
chopped coriander - 1/4 tbsp

Method:
1. Soak tamarind in 3 cups of water along with salt. Extract the juice and discard the pulp.
2. In a pan add oil and when it is hot, fry  green chillies for 2min
3. Grind seasame seeds and greenchillies coarsely
4. Add seasame paste, jaggery and onions to the tamarind water
5. Heat oil and add mustard seeds. After they splutter, add jeera, coriander and curry leaves. Pour this seasoning over the tamarind mixture and let it stand for 30min before you serve
