I know ginger is used to add flavor to almost all the spicy dishes. But my mom used to make this ginger thoku or pickle, which goes well with all the dishes. Easy to prepare and healthy.
This is my second contribution to "Long Live the Shelf" hosted by Roma.
Ingredients:
Ginger - 50gm
Red chili -7 or 8
Tamarind - lemon size
Urad dal - 2Tsp
Procedure:
- Heat 2Tbsp of oil and roast the chopped ginger for 5-10min until all its juice get dried out.
- In same oil, roast the red chili and urad dal separately. Cool it.
- In a mixer add the tamarind and red chili.
- The add the ginger and then add the urad dal. Add very little water may be 2Tbsp.
- Heat the oil and saute the ginger thoku or ginger pickle for 2-3mins.
- Cool it and refrigerate.
