What is Panch Phoron Chili
Panch Phoron Chili is a stir fry side dish or accompaniment whereby green chilies are cut into pieces and sauteed with a Panch Phoron spice mix. Panch Phoron is a Bengali 5-spice blend that is either dry roasted or directly tempered in oil to extract its blended flavors.
In Bengali the parsing of Panch Phoran is as follows: Panch – Five; Phoron- tempering/seasoning. Literally means a tempering with five spices.
The whole spices used are cumin seeds, mustard seeds, fennel seeds, fenugreek seeds and nigella seeds. Normally, they are combined in equal parts, but to eliminate bitterness, I recommend halving the amount of fenugreek seeds.
