This traditional Maharashtrian thecha is made by pounding green chillies, garlic, and roasted peanuts into a coarse, fiery chutney. What makes it stand out is the smoky flavour that comes from roasting the chillies before grinding. It's not just spicy, it has layers of heat, crunch, and a slight tang that wakes up your taste buds. Best enjoyed with bhakri or dal-rice, it adds an instant punch to any simple meal.
