Want to jazz up your next salad or bowl? Add pickled red onions! Tangy and sweet, they're the best way to give almost any dish a pop of flavour!

Today, I decided to try hand at pickling. Though I love a good mango pickle (aam ka achar) I have tried making any kind of achar aka pickle.
This onion pickle is a sort of instant pickle as there is no leaving it out in the sun for days to ripen. The magic of this quick pickle all happens in a frying pan. The sizzling mustard oil tempered with fennel, nigella and cumin seeds is poured over the onions and given a good mix, lastly, squeeze lemon over it and mix and store in the fridge,

Effortlessly easy to put together, this quick pickle is a spicy, tangy condiment. Pair it with rotis or khichdi for a classic combo or brighten up a sandwich or salad for the ultimate fusion side! they add a zesty finish to any dish the way a favourite accessory can instantly elevate an outfit.
Enjoy the fusion condiment you never knew you needed!
