      It comes handy when you don't feel like grinding chutneys with the tiffin items....sometimes I also add a spoonful to the non-veg dishes too while cooking.

  6. I admit that pickle making is not my cup of tea. But this pickle is so compelling that I would not mind trying out such an easy one. This pickle would go well with rice or even parathas. Good quick fix when no mood for main course vegetable. Great one!
