Gongura Pachadi

Gongura Pachadi, also known as red sorrel leaves chutney, is a traditional condiment originating from the Andhra Pradesh and Telangana regions of India, where it is a staple part of local cuisine. Made primarily from gongura (Hibiscus sabdariffa var. rubra) leaves, which impart a distinctive sour flavor, the chutney typically includes additional ingredients such as dried red chilies, garlic, cumin seeds, and occasionally green chilies. Note that "red sorrel" in this case does not refer to sheep's sorrel; gongura is not closely related to the European sorrel family.
