    Fenugreek Seed Pickle Recipe (Methi ka Achaar) During the winter days, we eat the saag and sabzi of fenugreek. The fenugreek seed laddo, pickle and chutneys give us warmth and helps in digestion. Especially for older people, it is helpful for joint pain. Let’s make Fenugreek seed pickle today. Ingredients for Fenugreek seed pickle Fenugreek seeds - ¼ cup or 40 gram Mustard Oil (Sarso) - 2-3 tbsp Lemon (Nimbu) - 250 gram or 6-7 Asafetida (Hing) - Less than ¼ tsp Black pepper (Kali mirch) - ½ tsp (Coarsely grind) Fennel (Saunf) - 1 tsp (Coarsely grind) Turmeric powder (Haldi powder) - ½ tsp Red chilly powder (lal mirch powder) - ½ tsp Salt (Namak) - 1.5- 2 tsp How to make Fenugreek Seed Pickle Wash the fenugreek seeds and wipe it off with a dry cloth. Put oil in a pan and heat, heat the oil well until the smoke comes out, let it be on low flame, and cool the oil till it becomes medium hot, add the fenugreek seeds to the hot oil and stir continuously for 1-2 minutes, roast the fenugreek seeds till there is a slight change in its colour. Turn off the flame. Now add Asafetida powder, black pepper, fennel, turmeric powder, red chilly powder and salt. Mix everything well. Now take out the mixture in a bowl. Take out lemon juice in a bowl, add in the pickle and mix well. The pickle of fenugreek seeds is now ready, but can be eaten only after 3 days as then the lemon juice will mix thoroughly with the pickle and all the spices will be absorbed. The pickle can also be made with raw mango. Instead of lemon juice, you can take 250 gram raw mango and cut it into small pieces. Mix it with the fenugreek seeds and the spices in a frying pan. The juice will come out from raw mango and will get mixed. The fenugreek seeds will become fluffy and our pickle will be ready. The pickle can be eaten for 15 days. So that the pickle can be eaten for long, store it in the refrigerator or mix 3-4 tbsp vinegar in it or heat mustard oil and add it to the pickle once it is cool or add ¼ tsp citric acid to it and mix well. Delicious fenugreek seed pickle is now ready to be eaten. Enjoy eating 1 tbsp fenugreek seed pickle daily with your meal. Precautions Wash the container where you will store the pickle well with boiled water. Also keep it in sunlight or in the oven so that it gets dried completely. Whenever you wish to eat it, take out the pickle using a clean and dry spoon. Wash and dry your hands properly, before taking out the pickle. No humidity or dirt should go inside the pickle. Keep the pickle in sunlight for sometime. This increases the shelf life of the pickle.

    निशा: नीतू, अचार बिलकुल कड़वा नहीं होता, बहुत अच्छा खट्टा स्वाद होता है उसका.

    निशा: हिमा जी, अचार में सरसों का तेल गरम करके और मिला दीजिये,नमक कम हो थोड़ा नमक भी डाल दीजिये, अचार खट्टापन कम हो जायेगा.

    निशा जी नमस्ते। नए साल की शुभेच्छाएँ क्या नीम्बू के रस के स्थान पर आंवले का रस काम में ले सकते हैं ? अदरक या उस का रस मिलाये तो कैसारहेगा ?धन्यवाद
    निशा: भागचंद जी, आंवले के रस में अचार डाला जा सकता है, अचार को लम्बे समय तक चलाने के लिये, अचार को फ्रिज में रखें, या उसमें तेल और ज्यादा डालें या सिरका डालकर रखें.

    Namaste Nisha Aunty,Kya hum is achar me amla bhi daal sakte hai?
    निशा: संध्या जी ये अचार कच्चे आम या नीबू के रस में ही डाला जाता है.

    thanks,kaya pani men bhigokar bhi aachar banaya jaksta hai mujhe 6month bad use karene ke liye kakarna hoga?
    निशा: शिवा, मेथी को पानी में भिगो कर अचार बनाया जा सकता है, लेकिन वह जल्दी खराब हो जाता है, इस तरह डाला गया अचार अधिक दिन तक चलता है. 6 महिने बाद अचार को यूज करने के लिये आप अचार को बाद में तभी जब यूज करेंगी उसी के आस पास बना लेंगी.

    Hello Nisha Ji,

    I love your cooking, Why do we heat the oil too much and than let it cool for sometime?

    Thanks!

     


    निशा: विपिन जी, सरसों का तेल अच्छा गरम करने से उसका तीखापन खतम हो जाता है और ठंडा तो करना ही पढ़ेगा, ज्यादा गरम में मसाले डाले जाय तो वह जल जायेंगे.
