Puli or Tamarind Sauce Hot Sweet and Sour

My earlier post on this type of Sauce was so much appreciated. I would like to pep it up a little more spicy style. It is Hot and Spicy.

Soak some Tamarind or Valan Puli in Hot water for sometime. Remove the seeds and beat the pulp in a mixer. You may remove any lumps or fibers etc. Make it a fine paste. Add some red chili paste.
To make Red chili paste, take 5-10 red chilies and soak it in boiled water for 20 min. Grind it in mixer
Crush some Jaggery and add it to the above with a pinch of Salt and stir well to get a hot, sweet and sour sauce. It is as good as the Kerala Puli Inji, or Rajasthani Sweet and Sour Sauce for Samosas and Kachoris.... or the Filipinio Tamarind Sauce.  May it will be a great combo with the Tex Mex dishes as well...!!
