Notes

Note-
*You may use any vegetable oil for this pickle, but I personally prefer to use mustard oil for this pickle.
*-Rai kuria is Split and peeled mustard seeds(yellow in colour), If rai kuria is not available then grind black mustard seeds/rai and use(there is slight change in colour but the taste remains the same)
Serving suggestions – Serve with almost anything, and is a great travel food.
