This is, I believe the most commonest & quickest, easiest condiment, pickled dish in our Indian Cuisines & is very well expected in our favourite Restaurants as well as it’s that very simple to include in our homely get togethers or parties since, preparing this takes only a very few ingredients which’s commonly available in all our pantries & gets ready just like that in a jiffy…!!!

Ingredients

NIL. Prep Time: 10 mins. Rest: 4-6 hrs.
5-6 servings
  1. 1 CupWhite Vinegar
  2. 200-250 gmsShallots/Small Onions
  3. To Taste Salt
  4. 1/4Beetroot: Thinly Sliced
  5. 4-5Fresh Red Chillies: Optional
  6. 1-1.5 CupsWater: RT
  7. 1 PinchSugar
  8. 1 tspFresh Lemon Juice: Optional (I’ve used for that lemon smelled tartness besides the vinegary one)
  9. 1Airtight Container: Preferably made of Glass

Cooking Instructions

NIL. Prep Time: 10 mins. Rest: 4-6 hrs.
  1. 1

    In one mixing bowl: Add in all the aforementioned ingredients and mix everything well together until nicely combined and well blended & gradually incorporated- Cover it & set aside for at least 3-4 hrs time on the kitchen platform or in the fridge itself-
    Best is overnight, always 👍🏻

  2. 2

    Next day or after resting it for the minimum time given: Strain the dark pink liquid first into a separate Jar or an airtight container- In which gradually we need to place the vinegary shallots/onions (that’s what’s usually done, in the Restaurants)- The beetroot is used to incorporate the gorgeous pink colour to it, green chillies for that spicy flavours & essence & not exactly the spiciness

  3. 3

    None of these are displayed in the jar/container it’s been finally put on our Dining Table-
    This can be prepared well beforehand & stored in the fridge & it goes a long way upto more than a couple of weeks time thus-
    Use it, generously as & when it’s required with your choicest food platters/snacks/main meal courses, etc.

  4. 4

    It doesn’t call for any garnish at all & is usually presented, as is on the Dining Tables and Enjoyed with our favourite food items…
    It’s become an integral part of our Indian Food Culture & Habits & is overly expected in mostly all the standard Restaurants we do actually step into

A hardcore Bong- that has a tremendous wanderlust in her blood as well as that much passion for cooking new ideas and recipes & also, camouflaging certain recipes across the globe-Of course, all that maintains its heritage and cultures in its looks and taste both yet caters to the day’s call/requirement to be health conscious but a great foodie that’s innate in her genes and tries to satiate the crowd- Be ANY, with all that 😊💁🏻‍♀️👍🏻
