Thanks Anoushka, also thanks for your query.
I have ammended my post.
It is dry red chillie paste.

I will be posting dishes that we cook in our house.
We are not born with recipes.
These recipes are handed down by great grandmother,
grandmother, mother and friends and relatives.
So these recipes are not my own.
The pictures are my own.
Feel free to ask for any recipes.
I will post if I know.
thanks. Feedbacks and acknowledgments are like
booster to us. Kugan
