Vankaya Pachi Pulusu is really a traditional classic Andhra dish. It is made from simple ingredients and incredibly simple to prepare.Its very scrumptious and completely addictive.
I love its tanginess as well as heat of chillies. The sweetness of jaggery balances the tangy flavor of tamarind and also the spice of eco-friendly chillis. Eating it with hot steamed grain, pappu (cooked tur dal) and vadiyalu is much like paradise on the planet.
