Green Apple Achar | Fiji Style

[@sallymoodley1422]

Will definitely try this recipe...looks delicious. Thanks for sharing.

[@coralandpuppies1582]

Just finished making this and it turned out even tastier than it sounded while watching. Will leave it bottled and unopened for about a week or two to let all the spices and mustard soak into the green apples. Like everyone else who cooks, I snacked on it throughout: an hour into it marinating in salt, after wiping off all the salt, then only with the added spices and finally after mixing in the mustard oil. Each stage passed the test😇

[@thatfijitaste]

Great to learn that you enjoyed the recipe ❤️ it definitely is really yummy as an Achar or a snack..

[@nielbansraj]

Awesome. thank you for sharing.

[@mandeepkaur6824]

[@TravelFoodAdventures]

Yummy, this reminds me of fiji style mango achar

[@tank6987]

i loved the instant semi ripe ones my mum used to make, with dhaal and rice...heaven!!

[@SwatisRecipe]

Nice recipe

[@Liz-sc3np]

Filipinos call pickles atshara. Sounds similar to achar. So cool 😎

[@tank6987]

wow thats so fascinating very similar name

[@gayatrinaiker2639]

Sounds interesting. Thanks.

[@sandysandy9275]

If you look at every language.It has some tracing back to Hinduism and Sanskrit.Even English words sometimes are Sanskrit or come from it.I believe that this was a very old language spoken but coming from the world's oldest way of life.That's why so many words sounds and is spelt similarly to a Hindu language

Can I use olive oil instead mustard oil because mustard oil it's expensive in Egypt

[@thatfijitaste]

Hi there! Yes of course you can try the recipe with olive oil. I’m pretty sure it will taste just as good and you won’t need to heat olive oil :) enjoy!

Can someone please tell me pickle masala.. what's the ingredients for pickle masala

[@thatfijitaste]

Hi Ayesha, please see recipe for masala here: thatfijitaste.com/achar-masala/

[@nielbansraj]

how long does it last in the bottle. Do I need to put it in the refrigerator ?

[@thatfijitaste]

Yes, refrigerate and eat within a week :)

[@margretcruze5263]

Woooooooow

[@Call-y3k]

Can we use 🔴 apple also if 🟢 not available?

[@thatfijitaste]

Hi @call882! You can use red apples but it will be quite a sweet achar! It may be good if you can find a variety of red apple that isn’t so sweet.. we haven’t tried it but you can make a small batch to see if you like it ..

[@khadijapehlari2642]

Me Zaroor Try Karungi Yah Bhi Bata De Plz Kitne Din Me Khane Laiq Hoga Aur ise dhup me rakhna hai

[@shivangnisk]

Hello! You can eat it instantly.. no need for sun drying, it tastes best just made this way ❤ enjoy!

[@khadijapehlari2642]

Kitne din tak rakh sakte Sirka nahi daalna hai Me banaai hu just Bahut bahut testy bana hai Thank you so much

[@tuyetli678]

Can I reuse the pickle juice again to do another time? If not what to do with the pickle juice? I hate to throw things away.

[@thatfijitaste]

You can re-use the pickle oil for another batch of achar within a few days :)

[@seemawati5501]

Cool,how long can it be shelved? Outside or in the refrigerator?

[@thatfijitaste]

Refrigerator for up to 5 days, optimally 3 days (stays crispy and fresh)

[@leahgopaul8334]

Can you use any other oil instead of mustard oil

[@thatfijitaste]

Hi Leah, I don’t think you’ll get that ‘Achar’ or pickle flavour without the mustard oil.. you can try making a small batch with your preferred oil to see if the taste is to your liking - before you try a bigger batch?

[@yalini2406]

I want to try but is it healthy ?

[@thatfijitaste]

Hello Yalini. We’d suggest you make a small batch to try it out :)

[@AnimeFan-ph5su]

Can I use crispy green apples?

[@thatfijitaste]

Hello! Yes you can use crispy apples but don’t store it for too long as the moisture will start to make it go bad!

[@AnimeFan-ph5su]

@@thatfijitaste Oh, that's too bad. Thanks for the tip ❤️

[@pallavithakur..]

Did you use sugar in it??

[@thatfijitaste]

Hi Pallavi, you won’t need to use sugar because the apples themselves will have some sweetness. But it’s completely up to your taste!

[@zebunishahajiani6925]

Why did my have moulds after a while?

[@thatfijitaste]

Hello there! There apples are not sun dried (they’re usually made to eat within 3-7 days) so keeping them for much longer could be the reason why your batch has gone bad. Perhaps next time, make a smaller batch and eat within the week 😊 it’s a quick recipe so you can always make more when you feel like it! ❤

[@zebunishahajiani6925]

Hallo THANKYOU for your respond. Yes next time I will refgrate after cooling and use them soon. Wish you a HAPPY DAY. All the best. GOD bless.

[@asmaakter5591]

Do I need to add any vinegar please let me know.

[@thatfijitaste]

Hi Asma, there’s no need to add vinegar with this recipe because the green apples are already a little sour !

[@Pinkbattlewolf]

You realize that your glass jar has some funny chinese characters? Lol. Nice video though

[@thatfijitaste]

Haha yes! It’s a re-used Chinese chilli oil bottle 😆 makes a great storage jar for the short term and there’s less waste going to the landfill!

[@thatfijitaste]

Haha yes! It’s a re-used glass jar that i think contained Chinese chilli oil 😆 we love to reuse things in Fiji, less waste ❤️

[@Pinkbattlewolf]

@@thatfijitaste oh i didn't know that chinese chili oil is also used in Fiji?

[@thatfijitaste]

@@Pinkbattlewolf We have wonderful Chinese communities in Fiji as well and it has influenced our cooking too.. we love our Chilli Oil ❤️

[@sridharkocharlakota2569]

Save yourself a minute, forward to 1 min as the apples are still being sliced.

[@thatfijitaste]

Thanks! Yes quite a few apples were sliced :D

[@kolytahmina2830]

Which app do you make videos?

[@thatfijitaste]

Hello! An SLR camera to record and Adobe apps (sometimes iMovie on Mac) to edit.. even apps built into iPhone sometimes.. hope this helps!
