I am a fan of pickle. varieties of pickles I try even though I know that eating too much of pickle is harmful to our health which increases acidity due to the stressful life we are leading now a days. But sometime, we need the pickle as accompaniment as pickle is part of our Indian food.
We make pickles usually with Mango, Lime, Wild lime, gooseberry etc. Now a days, I have started trying the pickles with vegetables and fruits.
I have already posted one kovakkai pickle but this one is thokku in a different form. This pickle was appreciated by my colleagues and friends as they liked it very much.
