Indian Pickled onions
Anyone made Indian style pickled onions with mustard seeds  ginger garlic etc etc
Ive just purchased 20 kilos of pickling onions for 2 squid

I normally just top and tail remove first layer, put them in a jar adding a good dozen fresh birds eye chillis as i fill it up.  Nothing else other than the pickling vinegar.  Done.  Nice and spicey just how i like them  ;D

I think you might need a big 45 litre home brew bucket to pickle that lot

The peelings the worst part.I make them for christmas any vinegar will do then add your desired spices ,I like to add a bit of sugar .For cruncchy ones soak in brine for 24 hrs , then your need one big jar

Thanks guys

 Im going to try - normal pickled onions (havent had them in years)
Then im going to make some red and yellow - fresh beetroot in some (red) and turmeric (yellow) with the inclusion of some chilies or chili flakes, mustard seed, cumin seed, cinamon, pepper corns - i think it will make a warming pickled onion

best, Rich
