Nutrient values

Chillies come together with a unique blend of spices, giving rise to a tongue-tickling accompaniment for any meal. Whether dhoklas or khichdi, just serve a little of this Green Chilli Pickle alongside the dish to give it a fiery touch.

A special blend of spices like soonth and carom seeds compensates for the reduction in salt, giving the same finger-licking effect as a salt-loaded one.

This yummy accompaniment can also be enjoyed by hypertensive people, in limited quantities and only occasionally.

A low-salt, low-sodium menu can also include other dishes like the Mili Jhuli Subzi and the Mooli Moong Dal .

1 cup thinly sliced green chillies

1 tsp oil

1 tbsp cumin seeds (jeera)

1/2 tsp whole peppercorns (kalimirch)

1 tbsp lemon juice

1/8 tsp salt

Use only light green variety of chillies to make this pickle, else the pickle will be very spicy.

Dry roast the cumin seeds, peppercorns and carom seeds together in a broad non-stick pan till it leaves a nice aroma. Remove from the flame and keep aside to cool.
Powder all the roasted ingredients in a blender till smooth.
Add the dry ginger powder, jaggery, lemon juice and salt and mix well.
Mix the prepared masala with the sautéed green chillies in a deep bowl and keep aside to marinate for atleast 3 to 4 hours.
Cover with a lid and refrigerate till required. This pickle will last for 2 to 3 days in the refrigerator.

I don't like Bhavnagari Chillies, when I prepared this recipe I liked it very much. It was spicy and tasty.

Hi Sonal, this recipe is a low salt recipe and hence the taste will be different. Let me know if there were any specific issues you faced. Thanks.

Sweet, spicy and tangy at the same time... Good accompaniment for any meal. The salt was a little less but I think that''s because the recipe is meant for those with high BP.
