hari mirch adrak lahsun ka achar recipe | chilli garlic ginger pickle with detailed photo and video recipe. a classical and spicy north indian or punjabi pickle recipe made with roughly chopped ginger garlic and chillies. unlike other pickle recipes, it has a combination of flavours from garlic, ginger and the spice heat from green chillies. it can be an ideal condiment side or taste enhancer for most of your lunch and dinner meal, but it is served better with a choice of parathas.
i have posted quite a few recipes till now which is either made with just one vegetable or a combination of 2 vegetables. these are good but they can be better with more vegetables added to them. for instance, when you use tender mangoes to make mango pickle, it releases its juice to make raw mango flavoured pickle. similarly, when we use ginger, garlic and chillies it gives a combination rich achar recipe. note that each vegetable used here has its own strong smell and flavour. hence when combined together it releases a unique mouth-watering smell to make it a perfect spicy pickle. moreover, this is an instant pickle and do not require to soak and dry the ingredients in saltwater for months. the instant spice mix is prepared and mixed with fried ingredients to make it easy to condiments.
furthermore, i would also like to add some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to hari mirch adrak lahsun ka achar recipe. firstly, i would heavily recommend to use fresh vegetables for this recipe and avoid using the frozen vegetables. as such, there isn’t any hard and fast rule to use fresh, but it would just elevate the flavour. secondly, even though it is an instant pickle recipe, it is better when it is rested thoroughly. you may need to rest it for a minimum of 2-3 hours for the best result. lastly, if you wish to add more vegetables you are more than welcome to add them. perhaps you can add sliced carrots, beans, lemons and even mango and amla.
