DRUMSTICK PICKLE /MUNAGAKAYA AAVAKAI


I am very fond of pickles. My Mil makes this pickle every year .But I didn't tried own .This time I decided to try so I put this pickle in little quantity.. And it came out very well, it was completed within 3 days only....So I thought of sharing with you.

INGREDIENTS :

Drumsticks : 4 big
oil : 1 cup
Tamarind pulp : 50 g
chilly powder : 4 tsp
fenugreek powder : 1 tsp
salt : 4 tsp
mustard seeds powder : 2 tsp
turmeric : 1/2 tsp



Method :

1) First wash drumsticks and dry them completly, cut them into finger size pieces. see that it is fully dried otherwise pickle will get spoiled.

2) Take a big bowl and mix all the powders fenugreek Powder, Mustard seeds powder,chilli powder,salt,turmeric powder and keep it aside.

3 )Heat a non stick pan add 1 cup oil sufficient for your pickle .


4) Add chopped drumsticks and fry well. It takes nearly 15-18 mins to boil fully.



5 )When drumsticks are half boiled then add the tamarind pulp and let it boil fully.



6)Switch off the stove and after 5 mins add your mixed powders on it.

7)When it is fully cooled mix well and Put it in a dry container.


8)After 1/2 day pickle is ready to eat.

9)Mix with hot rice and enjoy the spicy,tangy pickle with Vadiyams and papad.

Sig came up with wonderful ingredient Tamarind for Jhiva of ingredient originated by Mahanadi.
My recipie is reaching this event.

  30. Thanks for the bear hug, Sireesha! A giant bear hug to you from me too! :) Drumstick pickle sounds lovely. Never tasted that before. Liked the color of the chana masala. I think it's the use of teabag that gave it that, right? Should try that way sometime. Hope youa re doing well, S! Take care!
