Green Chilli Pickle

Green Chilli Pickle 
Hey!  I'm back again with another Indian style pickle recipe. Today I'm going to share a simple recipe of green chilli pickle. Do you know that green chillies are rich in dietary fiber. Well, green chillies are one of the must ingredient of Indian cooking. Slit,  sliced,  chopped or diced, we like to add green chillies in our cooking.  Green chillies are also often served as raw. As green chillies are available throughout the year,  we may not need to preserve it by pickling.  But Indian pickles are more than just preserving.  Because of the use of oil and spices, the pickles become more flavourful and we like to have pickles with rice or roti (Indian bread) in lunch or dinner as a side dish. 

There are many different ways of making green chilli pickle.  This pickle is hot and sweet in taste.

Water Hyacinth : The Most Amazing Vegetable I Found During My Visit To Tipam

I once tasted a water hyacinth dish in my mom's place but haven't cooked it myself. So I bought two bunches of water hyacinth's leaves with stems from him. As he was also selling water hyacinth's blossoms, I bought it too which was a new vegetable for me.  Water hyacinth  Water hyacinth's blossoms  Tipam is located in the Naharkatia Tehsil of Dibrugarh district of Assam.
