Bhavanagari Green Chilies Pickle (Instant)
About Bhavanagari Green Chilies Pickle (Instant)
Indians love their green chilies with food right from their first meal of the day i.e. Breakfast. Our staples like poha, upma, paratha or chutneys for idlis & dosas are incomplete without the right kick of spice.
This recipe of instant green chilies pickle is what I usually make every monsoon season for three reasons (1) I get fresh Bhavanagari Green chilies in the market (2) the best way to increase immunity from constant weather change (3) Non-spicy – so husband enjoys.
These variety of chilies (though they contain seeds) are completely non-spicy. They are the best option to add in dals or stuffed with chickpea flour & spices to make stuffed mirchi (chili) that can be enjoyed with hot dal rice & some clarified butter or ghee drizzled on top.
