[Les]

Hi Guy's
I know, I know, there is a multitude of recipes on line for green chilli pickle, But none tried and tested by our food guru's on here, Does anyone have a good Green Chilli Recipe that they have tried, (and liked of course) and if so, would you mind posting the recipe please. (not holding my breath ;D)
Thank's

Hi Les,
I've tried many homemade chilli pickles from various Indian friends from the UK and India.
I'd say most of them tasted pretty similar. Even the jar of naga pickle i bought recently tasted like any ordinary homemade chilli pickle.
I would say just pick any recipe from the net or youtube, i'm sure you'd be happy with it.
The ex girlfriends family that i got the Tomato Rice recipe from would always have a jar of chillies on the dinner table.
They would add fresh chillies to malt vinegar and leave for 2-3 weeks before eating with every meal.
I actually prefer chutney to pickle 
I made this version for my last big party but doubled the amount of chillies  (was too hot for most)
It's got a nice tang from the pomegranate seeds which can get stuck in your teeth if you're not careful. 

Green Chutney (Mint and Coriander)

Cheers, Frank.

Thanks Frank,
May give this one a go, (hate fresh coriander). Will have another look on the web.

Hi Les,

It can, but I don't know how long for, so eat it quickly then make another batch.

To be honest, this should keep for a couple of months, I mean apart from us, what else is going to go near that?!!   ;D

Hi Les
I suppose, if you have a surplus of green chillis you could make your own.

But BIR buy it in, whenever you get the pickle tray and poppadoms in a good restaurant, historically the pickles will be Pataks.
Usually the combo is Chilli pickle, Lime pickle, Sweet Mango chutney, along with the Onion salad.
Some use Mixed Pickle, which is my favourite and comes in bulk containers.

At home these keep for ever in the fridge, never known any of them going off.
