Ingredients

  • Amla - 250gm
  • Raw salt - 2 tbsp
  • Red chilies - 10 -12 nos
  • Fenugreek or methi seeds - ½ tsp
  • Cumin or jeera - 1 tsp

  • Asafoetida - ¼ tsp

Instructions

  • Wash and clean amla, see that no water remains. Crush the amla into pieces and remove the seeds.
  • Add salt to the amla pieces and keep this aside for a day. This helps in releasing the water and softens the amla pieces.
  • After resting the amla for a day, mix them gently.
  • For pickle masala, heat half teaspoon coconut oil, roast red chilies, cumin and methi. Cool them and grind into dry powder.
  • Now mix this masala powder with the salted crushed amla. Keep this aside for tempering.
  • Heat coconut oil, add asafoetida, let this oil cool down and pour this on pickle.
  • Gently mix everything and store this in airtight clean moisture free glass jar. Use the pickle after 2 to 3 hours or may be a day. This is a great accompaniment to hot rice, curd rice.
