Additional Tips

  • For extra crunch and a nutty aroma, lightly toast the fenugreek and onion seeds in oil before adding the other ingredients, but avoid burning them as they can turn bitter.
  • If karonda is unavailable, substitute with slightly under-ripe cranberries or gooseberries to achieve a similar tartness and texture.
  • This achar can be stored in an airtight glass jar in the refrigerator for up to a week; ensure all ingredients are dry to prevent spoilage.
  • Sprinkle a pinch of roasted cumin powder or a dash of lemon juice just before serving to enhance the flavor profile and add a refreshing twist.
