Dont be scared by the number of chillies used this recipe. As they are kashmiri, it gives a very nice colour and not tooo much of spice to it. This red gravy is used in making various subzis like cashew curry, malvani vatana usal and many more. This paste gives a very nice colour and taste to anything where added.
