Thanks for this lovely recipe, try using “rai dal” and see the difference. Rai dal is same as mustard seeds only the outer skin is removed and the pickle taste better (less bitter) and the colour is lovely.
We Sindhis add Cauliflower, lotus roots,whole small onions,Ghogru (Turnips), fresh garlic, Carrot,Mooli, etc.This is 100% Sindhi recipe. In market lots of “Mongri” is now in season and cheap too. Mongri(Marathi) and its called Dongri in Gujrati. This vegetable is like cluster beans but round in shape. Few days back I bought these and asked my wife to add these too to the “pani vari khatair”…..Its really yummy and healthy too. I will soon find the English name and let u know.

I’ve had turnip pickle before, but from a Lebanese recipe. Very good. I’d like to try this recipe as well … and we have a crock here.

Do you have a recipe for lime or lemon pickle? I like it very much and would like to make it here.

Thank you.
