 Easy Red Chili  Pickle Recipe-Laal Mirch Ka Achar- A very special,delicious and tangy Fresh Red Chili Pickle – Specialty Of Uttar Pradesh

Easy Red Chili Pickle – Laal Mirch Ka Achar- Pickles are an integral part of Indian cuisine. There are numerous types of pickles made in each region and state of India . Raw mango pickle and chili pickle is the most loved among the whole lot of variety of pickles.

Pickle are mainly of two types -first the yearly type and other are seasonal which are made in small batches as usually they have a short shelf life.

Red chili pickle is a very popular pickle of Banaras which is also popular as bharwa laal mirch ka achar. This pickle have a very long shelf life and I have never seen it spoiling by any chance. Though the process need time and patience as the red chilies are stuffed in a special way.

The stem of red chilies are removed from the back side and then the prepared masala is stuffed inside with the help of a toothpick. The shelf life of that pickle is till it last in your pantry 🙂

I love Banarasi mirch ka achar but as stuffed chilies have good amount of masala inside and now I am trying to avoid too much spicy food. so I have to try a different way to make this pickle.

When I spotted these fresh red chilies in the market I Immediately brought few. Then I tried making this easy  and simple style of pickle but with the same flavor and taste of Banarasi lal mirch achar . Do try this pickle it turn out amazing !!

    Kalonji Seeds are Onion Seeds. Are they not? Is this recipe Sattivic?
