LIMBU RASATLYA MIRCHYA / GREEN CHILLI PICKLE IN LIME JUICE


My husband just loves this pickle. More than the chillies he loves the spiced up and hot juices of the lime in it. The best part about it is that you can keep on topping up with lime juice as it gets consumed and enjoy it for a longgg time.

But keep this pickle refrigerated...it will stay longer. You can also grind this to a paste and it is called LIMBU MIRCHI CHATKA.....why chatka.....coz it burns a bit on your tongue because of its hotness......but tastes awesome....
