Dates Pickle
Divya Manu Nandavarik @cook_7819262
There is no better honor you can do to the yummiest biriyani , than if you can accompany it with a delicious dates pickle. Back in good old Cochin, my brother used to get me this dates pickle from Malabar Chips - the yummiest ever! And so, when he told me that they have limited stock for the season and could not send me 'my quota', I set about making my own! Tried to visualize the taste in my mind , and with a little bit of googling came up with this treat!

Before you start assembling the ingredients, soak the tamarind in some warm water. Soak the jaggery in another cup of warm water.
- 2
Heat the pan. Add oil. Once the oil start smoking, reduce heat and add the green chillies and ginger, followed by the onions.
- 3
Once onions turn soft, add the chilli powder, coriander powder, salt and curry leaves.
- 4
In about a minute, add the dates, and continue to saute. The onions should not brown, and should remain soft.
- 5
Now, add the water in which the tamarind was soaked in. Let it cook in medium flame. Add more water to the tamarind, and continue to add the water to the cooking dates mixture, till all the pulp of the tamarind has been extracted. Keep stirring occasionally.
- 6
Add salt.

By now, the jaggery would have dissolved in the water. When the water content in the cooking mixture has reduce to one fourth, add this jaggery water to the mixture. Continue to cook on low flame till a jam like consistency is reached. Turn off gas. If using honey, this is the time to add it.

Finger licking yummy dates pickle is ready. Greatest accompaniment to biriyani/pulao, or as a side to dosa/chapathi or as a sandwich spread. The tanginess of the tamarind, the natural sweetness of the dates and the spice from the chilies and ginger together constitute the killer combo!

Tomato Achar(Pickle)
#GoldenApron#Post_21#22_7_2019#InEnglish Pickle is a kind of recipe that we mostly use in tiffin , main course platter , Pakodas and Fritters. Care should be taken to avoid the use of water in Tomatoes and grinding wet marsala. Presence of water in pickle creates formation of slime and fungus and thus forces to discard. Here the Tomato pickle is made with wet masala and dry masala . I have used Mustard oil and Vinegar as preservative to keep the pickle outside for long time . If one wants to avoid Vinegar, pickle has to keept in the refrigerator . I have used Deghi Chilli powder , so reduced the amount of green Chilli.
Mango Pickle (Aam ka achar recipe)
Pickles hold great importance in Indian cuisine. Even as a side dish, they enhance any meal. Simple rice, lentils, and vegetables come alive with the addition of pickle. On trips or in lunch boxes, pairing pickle with parathas or puris eliminates the need for any other vegetable. Summer is mango season, and pickles, jams, chutneys, and sweet preserves are made to last the whole year. I'm sharing a traditional mango pickle recipe that can be used year-round. By adding just enough oil, the pickle remains dry, making it perfect for lunch boxes without spilling oil.

Dates Pickled in Orange Juice
I saw a recipe in a dessert cookbook from overseas which used dates pickled in orange juice, so I bought some orange juice and tried to make it. Dates pickled in brandy or rum are often used in pound cakes, but dates pickled in orange juice are unusual, so I wrote up the recipe.The dates will dissolve if you leave them to soak for too long, so only leave them for a day or two. I recommend you only make the amount you want to eat! Recipe by Uchidenokozuchi

Queen Elizabeth Cake (with Dates and Coconut)
I tried this cake at the Boulangerie Le Pain dans les Voiles in Montréal and liked its combination of dates and coconut. Apparently it was named after the Queen of Canada, Elizabeth II, and probably created in 1953 to celebrate her coronation. Or was it invented in 1937 for the coronation of King George VI and named after his wife, Queen Elizabeth? Regardless of its origin, the cake is delicious.
