Add a little kick to your everyday meals with this spicy, tangy chilli achar 🌶️
📌 Green & Red Chilli Achar
1. Dry-toast yellow mustard seeds, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, methi seeds and kalonji until fragrant.
2. Add turmeric powder, coriander powder and amchur powder. Let the spices cool, then grind them coarsely.
3. Pulse the green and red chillies with some ginger in a food chopper — keep them slightly chunky, not paste-like.
4. Add the spice mix to the chillies, then add salt, a little jaggery, vinegar, lemon juice and mustard oil that has been heated and completely cooled.
5. Mix everything well, transfer to a clean, dry jar and let the flavours come together.
Spicy, tangy and full of flavour — perfect with dal-chawal, parathas or any simple meal. 🌶️
