Pickle (Achaar) is an integral part of traditional Indian meals. Green chili achaar is my favorite. It can be served with any food and makes the food spicier. There are various recipes for green chili pickle, and it varies from region to region. This recipe is from North India and more popular in Rajasthan. I like homemade pickles rather than buying it from grocery stores. This recipe is simple and can be made fresh in small batches.

Ingredients

  • 10 green chili (long) – Pick variety based on hotness desired – wash and dry

  • 1 pinch hing/ asafoetida

  • 1 tsp red chilli powder

  • 1 tsp turmeric powder
