It is not very smooth, but slightly thick. The lentils gives a good texture, gives red chili spices and garlic gives strong taste and taste.
We usually mix it with gingeli oil or ghee and eat it with idli, dosa or rice. It tastes really good and can be made and stored for a long time. You do not have to keep it in the fridge either. Just keep it in a dry place in a tight box. You can make small batch or large batch as your wanted. The only thing that keeps in mind is to fry each item with patience slowly, nothing should be lit or roasted.
