Hey All!!!!!  Hope all r doing great…. I was out of blogging for few days as I had bad cold nd fever L .

God has  u given me so much wisdom at this age that I want to share it :P Do I have ne chance to share the wisdom ;). Yeh here lies the reason behind my fever…. And the cold is all because of the weather….. L .

Ne ways m getting bac to my norm..

When I caught fever I wanted to eat something spicy something tangy n yummm…. But wht was the question????

When we went down to market I found some huge Star fruits and thought they wud tickle my taste buds and got them home…. But Ufffffff…. They not only tickled my taste buds but they shook me all over :D.

They ver so so so sour…… that we just decided not to eat it…. But throwing it was not a solution….. And as my mamama is at home there was no chance of even thinking to throw it… both of us (mamama n me) decided to make pickle out of it…. And even decided to drop in some cauliflower in it…

And mind me I loved the taste and the pickle too… it was empty within weeks…. J

And my taste buds were all awake by this taste.

Here is the recipe for the Pickle.

Star fruits- 5 (washed and cut into cubes)

Cauliflower 4 florets- washed and cut into very small flowers.

Sea salt – 1 cup

Water – ½ cup

For the Pickle masala:

Red Chillies Long – 10

Red chillies short – 25

Mustard seeds – 3 tsp

A small pc of turmeric (2 peanut sized)- roasted

2 peanut sized hing (if u r using hing powder 1 tsp)- roasted

Method:

Heat ½ cup of water and add salt into it and boil until it gets 3-4 bubble boils…

Once cooled down add star fruit and cauliflower.

Now Grind the Pickle masala into a very fine paste.( to add water to make it fine paste use the boiled salt water itself in which the star fruit and cauliflower is soaked). Do not add extra water.
Now add this masala to the star fruit and cauliflower and mix well….. there is no need to add lime as the star fruit is too sour.. (if star fruit is not sour then u can add juice of ½ lime).

Rest the pickle out for 2 days and then refrigerate. 

Yummy spicy and Tangy Pickle is ready to Serve.

Tastes Yum Yum  when u add lozza love in it.

With a Spicy note its time to say Bubye,
