I never had any idea of making a pickle out of green grapes. I had bought 2 packs of grapes during my last week shopping. These green grapes happened to be so sour that could not be consumed happily as a fruit, so ended up making this Green Grapes Pickle. Trust me it tasted just yumm! Sour, sweet, spicy & flavourful! This is yet another instant pickle variety and can be made in 5 mins literally. Recipe with video 🙂 Which is your all time favourite pickle? Mine is this simple Tomato Thokku
Here is the video..
Now to the recipe..
[Preparation Time-2 mins : Cooking Time- 3 mins ]
Green Grapes Pickle Ingredients:
- Green Grapes – 1 cup (halved)
- Sesame Oil – 2 tsp
- Mustard – 1 tsp
- Curry leaves – few
- Salt – 1/2 tsp
- Chilli powder – 1/2 tsp
- Turmeric powder – 1/4 tsp
- Roasted Fenugreek+Mustard powder – 1/2 tsp
Method:
- Wash and cut each grape in half. Heat a pan with oil. Add mustard and allow it to crackle. Add a pinch of asafoetida and saute. Simmer and add salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder and roasted fenugreek+mustard powder. Mix well for a few seconds. Do not burn.
- To this add the halved grapes. Mix well so that the grapes get coated evenly. Just saute for a minute. No need to cook the grapes. Switch off the flame.
Thats it! Lip-smacking Green Grapes Pickle ready!
Serve with curd rice – the best combo!
Tips:
- Cutting the grapes is purely optional. U can use it as a whole too. I just loved the juicy texture.
- While adding the spice powders make sure the heat is low. Do not burn it, else it will spoil the taste.
- For roasted fenugreek+mustard powder – dry roast (separately) 1 tsp of mustard seeds until it crackles and 1/2 tsp of fenugreek seeds just until u get a nice aroma and grind them together.
- The pickle might look dry intitially, later on it will look juicy as in the pictures.
