Puli Milagai - Green Chilli Pickle

on
This is a spicy and tangy pickle made with green chilli and tamarind. My MIL makes this yummy pickle and this time I made it as I had a lot of green chilli lying around.
This is a great accompaniment to rice or roti/paratha. It stores well when refrigerated.

Ingredients Required:
Green Chilli - 30
Tamarind Paste - 3 tblsp
