your vegetable pickle looks delicious very easily done by you are green pawpaw done the similar way. i have pawpaw trees thanks for sharing😊

[@GaithreeDeviLuckan]

Hi Rosy I wrote out the recipe becasue I'm not sure when we will get green pawpaw again: I had one large green paw paw - I peeled and removed the seeds and cubed into about 1cm cubes. Then soak in tap water for about 2 to 3 hours to draw out the "milk" from the paw paw. Then drain thoroughly and soak in vinegar (enough to cover all the paw paw) overnight The next day drain and then let it dry (not in the sun) In the mean time boil about 1 1/2 cup oil and then let it cool completely. To the dry paw paw add 2 tbs pickle masala, 1 tsp pure chillie powder, 1 tsp salt (but if the pickle masala has salt adjust accordingly), about 12 cloves whole garlic, 2 cloves, 1/2 tsp sugar and mix it all up. Then add cooled oil to the mixture. For about the first 24 hours keep out of the fridge and mix every so often. On the second day you can store in air tight container and put in the fridge.

I love your recipe .could I have kumquat recipe soon.thank you.

[@GaithreeDeviLuckan]

If you have kumquats, wash them, make a slit about a third deep so the oil can get in. Soak in vinegar overnight, then drain and dry (not in sunshine). Cook you oil and then let it cool. Once your kumquats are dry, put back into a dish, add pickle masala, add salt if the pickle masala doesn't have salt, add a small amount of sugar, crushed garlic, pure chillie powder and then add part of the oil and stir through. Let it stand after mixing and then place into container. Top the oil up until kumquats are covered. You can also add green chillies to the pickle. You will have to adjust quantities according to how much kumquats you get.

Can I use raw oil in mango pickle. As you do with vegi one. I got a few mangos . I will like to try to soak pickle. Please advise. As we always cook our oil and allow it to cool completely but I see you say it won't keep vegis crisp. So need to know if I must use cold uncooked oil for mangoes too.

[@GaithreeDeviLuckan]

Either way works. If you leave the mango pickle to rest in the sun or a warm place the uncooked oil will also slowly "cook" as the pickle soaks.

Looks amazing! A question though, why don’t you add salt with your vinegar to soak overnight? God bless you 🙏

[@GaithreeDeviLuckan]

I prefer to add the salt to the pickle itself. Soaking the pickle with the salt would require additional salt as we drain the vinegar and dry the vegetables. Adding the salt to the pickle also allows you to taste and then adjust if it is less.

If it is in air tight container then you can keep it for a couple months in the fridge. However one tip is to never use a wet spoon when dishing out the pickle. The vegetables will lose some of their crunch with time though as well.

[@renosharamduttramphal1699]

Hi. Can it not be eaten next day if made like this

[@GaithreeDeviLuckan]

In theory it can, but the pickle needs some time to “set” - for the spices to get into the vegetables and the salt to seep in. It tastes better if it is given about a week before tucking in.

[@carolbuchan2268]

What is bhor ? What kind of figs ? Very interesting . Would like to try .

[@GaithreeDeviLuckan]

Bhor is an Indian berry that is dried after it ripens. With a very large seed. I'm not sure which figs exactly - we buy both from the Indian spice shop down in Durban and use them as is.

[@marlenebornman1841]

Must we use bhor

[@marlenebornman1841]

I have no idea what bhor is never heard of it before where does one buy it

[@GaithreeDeviLuckan]

No the bhor and figs are optional. Bhor is sometimes called Indian dates or Indian plums and is a fruit that is dried and we usually get them in the Indian spice shops. A real favourite especially in sweet and sour sauce/pickle that the kids would enjoy after school!

[@GaithreeDeviLuckan]

Yes you must rinse and drain before soaking in the vinegar. Your preference on the storage. If you eating it quickly then you could use plastic but for longer storage I would suggest a glass container and topping up with additional oil as well so veggies are almost submerged to preserve them
