Mirchi ka salan is a variety of curry hailing from Hyderabad. It's made by simmering fried mild green chilis in a piquant mixture of peanuts, coconut, fried onions, sesame seeds, ginger and garlic paste, and a variety of spices. The curry is usually enhanced with a variety of spices and tamarind or lemon juice for an extra kick of tanginess.
Typical spices used in the preparation include chili powder, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, turmeric, curry leaves, fenugreek seeds, and nigella seeds. Mirchi ka salan is typically consumed warm with fresh coriander leaves on top, and it is an excellent accompaniment to Hyderabadi biryani or plain rice, but it can also be paired with naan, roti, or other types of Indian bread on the side.
