In a small bowl, combine the fennel seeds, mustard seeds, Kashmiri red chili powder, turmeric, and salt with ½ cup water to make a spice mixture. In the same pan, fry the onions until golden brown. Add the tomato puree, yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, and the prepared spice mixture. Cook well until the masala is fragrant and the oil begins to separate. Add the fried beef and mix thoroughly. Cover and cook on low heat for 10 minutes. Slit the green chilies and stuff them with the tamarind pulp and chaat masala. Fry the stuffed chilies separately until lightly blistered. Transfer the Achari Beef Boti to a serving dish, garnish with chopped fresh coriander and the fried stuffed green chilies, and serve hot.
