I am feeling very domestic these days and want to try my hand at making achaar at home.

Afia

the easiest achar that too without any oil is 'aabi achaar'

You will need green chillies, lemon n salt

wash green chillies n lemons
slit chillies in middle n for lemons give two cuts like ' +' but don't make pieces ....its just that lemon should have a cross cut till bottom

now take a clean sterilized n dry jar ....stuff chillies n lemons with enough salt n throw in jar ...tightly close the jar when you r done

keep it in sun for 3-4 days....shake the jar when you get time so all the chillies n lemons get ripen in sun

You'll know its ready when chillies are like pale yellow n lemons are like skin/brown in colour .....

I love this one specially if chillies used are HOT!
