Spicy Dipping Sauce for Momo (Momo ko Piro Achar) Recipe!!

Restaurants in Nepal serve both spicy as well as mild achar with Momo. Regular Momo Achar  (click here for recipe) is one of the most visited posts of my blog.  Whenever, I make Momos (click here for recipe), I make both spicy and regular achar and love to dip momo in both before eating :D Therefore, I thought  about sharing recipe of spicy version as well. Follow the steps below for easy yet extremely yummy Momo Achar :)
