A classic mango pickle, made in Ammiji’s inimitable style. Sun-dried raw mango, spices and very, very little oil…

Ask Ammiji what her favorite mango pickle is, and she’ll sniff and say, “Sukka waala.” And her favorite just had to be done.

Ammiji’s Dried Mango Pickle is made with raw Ramkela mangoes, which are cut up into bite-sized pieces and then spread out to dry under the sun on our terrace. They’re then pickled with the choicest spices and minimal cold-pressed mustard oil. The resulting pickle has the typical tang of raw mangoes, intensified many times over. The spices only serve to complement the inherent concentrated taste of them.

What you have here is a pickle that you’ll love spending your time over, slowly slathering the masala over a parantha and then picking up a chunk to take small nibbles out of it…and then when there’s no mango flesh left, sucking the juices from the left-over piece of mango pit. We don’t mean to make that sound kinda dirty…that’s just the way this pickle is! ;)

Get your hands on this super-tempting pickle, made with Ammiji’s traditional recipe, with handpicked ingredients. Thank us later.

 And of course, Ammiji is all for the wisdom passed down through generations! While ginger is her favourite remedy for anything that ails you, garlic is her steady way of ensuring that nothing ever ails you. And her garlic pickle is our way of ensuring that you get a regular dose of good health!

A treasure hidden in plain sight – that’s what Ammiji calls the common Indian kitchen staple, ginger. And this is her delicious ginger pickle – supremely digestive, low on salt and oil.

Ginger is the one staple that Ammiji always keeps plenty of in her kitchen. It goes everywhere – from her tea to her curries and from her stoveside to her bedside. According to her, ginger has the power to cure everything – be it nausea, a stomache or a niggling cold. As children we were force-fed strong ginger juice sweetened with a little honey every winter evening, and brined ginger was a part of every salad that we saw on the table.

And one of the pickles that always graced Ammiji’s table was this simple Ginger pickle. Thick cut ginger, dried out in the sun till slightly hard and then pickled with very little oil and spice.

We tried out different recipes for a ginger pickle (no, please don’t tell Ammiji that!), but the one thing that we used as a touchstone was the clean taste of every bite of Ammiji’s original pickle. And so, that’s the recipe we finally went with, even though it was a minimal one!

Ammiji’s Ginger Pickle is the perfectly crunchy side to your meals. Each bite will not only bless you with the incredible power of ginger, but will also enhance your meal experience.

Ingredients: Ginger, Salt, Red Chilli, Turmeric, Aniseed, Fenugreek seeds, Nigella seeds, Coriander seeds, Mustard seeds, Mustard oil, Lemon juice.

This is Ammiji’s attempt to make the best out of what we usually waste – and this is literally the best! Cauliflower or Gobhi has multiple health benefits but a lot of their nutrition resides in their stalks. We usually discard those stalks – but here, we take those very stalks and make them shine in this tangy and spicy pickle!

Cauliflowers are high in fibre and antioxidants and are known for their disease-fighting properties. They’re also low in calories and carbohydrates, making them excellent for weight loss. But the nutritional benefits of the cauliflower does not only reside in the flower; the stalks are equally nutritious. The delicate tasting flesh of the stalks is a delicacy all by itself. 

And that is why Ammiji never wasted the gobhi danthal! They were made into a sabzi or stored in the fridge till she had collected enough for this pickle. Flavoured with chilli and garlic, this pickle is a delight to pair with anything.

Ingredients: Cauliflower stalks/stem, Garlic, Green chilli, Salt, Red chilli, Mustard seeds, Mustard Oil.

Fresh green chillies, pickled with jaggery. Is it sweet? Yes. Is it tangy? Of course. Is it spicy? Hell yeah! Warning: Insanely addictive.

Ammiji has this trick where she’ll add a pinch of jaggery to a dish at a particular stage of cooking. You can’t taste the jaggery but there’s this intriguing sweetness to any sabzi cooked by her. So when she first made this pickle, and called it GudMirchi, we thought she’d thrown her usual pinch of jaggery in. But boy, were we in for a surprise!

This sublime pickle is sweet. But it’s hella fiery too. Just when you feel the smoke starting to come out of your ears, you’ll be assailed by the umami sweetness of pure jaggery. And in between there’ll be tartness, saltiness and sheer, absolute wonder at the complexity of this pickle.

The jaggery used in this pickle is organic and the white vinegar is natural, in keeping with our tenets of using only the finest, most premium ingredients.

Coarsely chopped green chillies are cooked with ginger, garlic and spices before being drowned with a syrup of jaggery and vinegar. Khatta meetha is only one clichéd way to describe the end result!

Pair this achaar with paranthas, dal-chawal or mathris, and we promise you’ll be in heaven. (Psst, we also like the achaar with uttapams, but let’s keep that a secret.)

After the phenomenal success of Ammiji’s Gudmirchi Achaar, we bring to you its milder, cooler and way more subtle sibling – the Gudnimbu Achaar!

The umami sweetness of organic jaggery, combined with the sharp sourness of seasonal lemons, results in a pickle that’s an explosion of flavours on your tongue. This pickle is not only khatta, it’s meetha, it’s flavorsome and it’s eminently delicious. Ammiji’s penchant for adding a bit of sweetness to any dish comes into play in the recipe for this pickle. The result is a well-balanced condiment that will go with everything from mathris to khichdi to aloo paranthas. 

The pickle is subtly spiced with premium spices like brown cardamom, cinnamon and cloves, giving it an irresistible fragrance and a subtle complexity that’s usually missing from most lemon pickles. So go on, indulge your taste buds in an unmistakably khatta-meetha experience!

Oh, and this pickle is made with ZERO OIL, which means you can indulge guilt-free.
