Stuffed red chilli pickle

What is Stuffed Red Chilli Pickle?

Stuffed red chilli pickle, or lal mirch ka achar, is a well-loved Indian condiment made by filling whole red chillies with a blend of ground spices. These chillies are then preserved in oil, allowing the flavors to develop over time. The result is a pickle that is both spicy and tangy, with a satisfying bite and a mix of textures. This pickle is enjoyed across India and by Indian food lovers worldwide, adding a lively touch to everyday meals.

What Makes Stuffed Red Chilli Pickle Special?

Unlike simple chopped or sliced pickles, stuffed red chilli pickle uses whole red chillies filled with a spice mixture. The stuffing usually includes ground fenugreek, mustard seeds, fennel, and dried mango powder. The chillies are sun-cured in oil, which lets the spices soak into the flesh and mellow the heat. The combination of smokiness, tartness, and mild sweetness makes this pickle stand out. Each bite offers a burst of flavor and aroma that pairs well with many dishes.

Choosing the Best Stuffed Red Chilli Pickle
