Description
- What is Mathania mirch? Located 35 km from Jodhpur, Mathania produces one of the finest varieties of red chillies (lal mirch) in India, known for its sharp pungent heat; it brings distinct flavour, colour and taste to food and is used in preparation of famous Rajasthani dishes like Laal Maas (red meat) and Ker Sangri.
- Rajasthani cuisine not only appreciates this particular spice but has traditional dishes cenred around its flavour and colour laalmaas and kairsangri being two of them. Simmered with dry Mathania mirchi, laalmaas has the sharpness of the chillies contrasting with the tender and sweet desert goat meat. The pungent, flavourful preparation is a beauty on the plate with its red hues making it a feast for the eyes too.
- In Marwari and Rajput cooking, the Mathania mirch is used mostly as a dry spice which lends colour and body to the dishes. There is also the culture of soaking the chillies, when fresh, in mustard oil and consuming it later as a pickle. But this boutique spice is also expensive, owing to limited production and burgeoning exports to Arab nations, and to the restaurants. While there is little to spare, local kirana shops are careful of quantities of the Lal Badshah being sold.
- Mathania has resident families working on harvesting, drying, grinding the chillies, while the ladies of the house also make the very Rajasthani, very intense mirchiki chutney with chillies soaked overnight and then ground with garlic and a few other spices.
- Ingredients: Original Mathania Dry Mirchi- Stemless Powder Laal Mirch
- Mathania chillies are not spicy but known for their bright red colour , which is why mutton cooked in mathania chillies is called laal maas.
- With conducive weather conditions in Mathania, the region finds itself the chosen ground for these chillies which flourish during the tropical months between Feb to April. In its uniqueness, this chilly grows only in Mathaniain Rajasthan and has, therefore, come to be known as Mathania lal mirch.
- Oh and here is another reason why you should only use Mathania red in your laal maas According to a report by Central Arid Zone research Institute, Mathania chilly is on the verge of extinction. The best way to keep it alive is to use it and trust me, you will be amazed with the results. Considering that Chilli came to India through the Portugese only in 1498 and either travelled upwards from Goa or Eastwards from the middle east to Reach Rajasthan.
