To begin, gently roast 1/4 cup of peanuts on a low flame. Simultaneously, let's roast 4-5 dried chilies; alternatively, you can opt for chili powder or green chilies to suit your taste preferences.

Moving on to the next step, assemble the roasted peanuts, dried chilies, 1 tsp of cumin seeds, and salt to taste in a mixer jar.

Add the prepared paste to the bowl, followed by the tamarind pulp mixed with water.

Adjust the consistency by adding water as needed, achieving the perfect balance for a delightful pachi pulusu.

Conduct a taste test, and if necessary, fine-tune the dish by adding more chili powder or salt according to your taste preferences.
Now, we have to prepare the tempering for the pachi pulusu.
