Instructions

1. 1

   Chop, measure and line up; the cooking part is over before the radio finishes a song.

2. 2

   Toast the red chili powder lightly for depth, or keep it raw for brightness — both are correct.

3. 3

   Pound or blend the garlic with chilies, tamarind and salt; the stone grinder texture is worth chasing.

4. 4

   Check the seasoning with a plain spoonful of rice; adjust till it pops.

5. 5

   Finish with a sizzling tempering: mustard seeds, curry leaves and dried red chilies poured over the top; stir in only at serving.
