Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the cumin seeds (if using), garlic, green chilies, cilantro stems and salt. Sauté for 2 minutes.
  3. Add the peanuts and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, until the garlic shows light golden spots.
  4. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool completely.
  5. Crush in a mortar and pestle in batches, or pulse in a spice blender or food processor, until you reach the texture you want: coarse for traditional thecha, finer for thecha paneer.
  6. Add the lemon juice and mix once thoroughly.
