        Hey guys! Here's the pickle recipe, which am sure will be a treat for all non veg lovers. It is a time taking recipe , but at the end it's worth all the time you have put in to make it. This pickle goes well with idly, dosa and rice. Let's go in for the ingredients and recipe.


INGREDIENTS:

* Boneless chicken- 1kg

* Ginger garlic paste- 5 tbspns

* Chilli powder- 1/4 cup

* Pickle masala powder- 5 to 6 tbspns

* Lemon juice- 5 tbspns (juice of one big lime)

* Oil- 1 1/2 cups

* Salt- as per taste


PICKLE MASALA POWDER:

* Cinnamon- 4 half inch sticks 

* Cardamom- 4

* Cloves- 10

* Coriander seeds- 6 tbspns

* Mustard seeds- 1 1/2 tbspns

* Jeera- 1 tbspn

* Fenugreek seeds- 1/4 tbspn 


* Dry roast all the above mentioned ingredients and grind it into a fine powder.


* If you have excess masala powder store it in an air tight container and you can use it for anyother homemade pickle recipes .


PROCEDURE:

MARINATING THE CHICKEN:


* Cut the chicken into small pieces. 


* Add 2 tspn salt, turmeric powder, mix them well and let it marinate for 15 to 20 mins .

MAKING THE PICKLE:


* Heat oil (1 1/2cups) in a pan.


* Fry the marinated chicken pieces until they turn golden brown and crispy . There should be zero moisture in the chicken, so it stays good for a long time.


* Keep aside the fried chicken pieces.


* In the same oil add ginger garlic paste and fry it well until the raw smell goes off.


* Now add the fried chicken pieces to the pan and mix them well and saute it for 2 mins. Once done turn the heat down to medium.


* Now add chilli powder and pickle masala powder and give it a nice stir.


* Now add salt , mix well and turn off the flame .

* Let the pickle cool down completely.

* Once the pickle is cooled completely, you will see the oil separating from the pickle .


*  Now it's time to add lime juice (I added the juice of 1 big lime). Give it a nice stir and store the pickle in your desired air tight jar.


* Leave the pickle untouched for two days so that the pickle absorbs all the essence.

Pic after 2 days. The oil oozed and the pickle is perfectly ready for you to enjoy



* Now the pickle is all ready for you to enjoy . Store it in the refrigerator and it stays good for  a month . (Make sure not to touch the pickle with your hands which leads to spoiling)
