Achari Masala

Achari Masala

Achari Paneer Tikka, Achari Chicken Tikka, Achari Soya Chaap, have become a regular in menus in almost all the restaurants lately. As the name suggests, this eclectic spice blend is not only used to make a pickle but can also be used to flavour our regular and sometimes mundane curries and starters with that chatpata achar like flavour.
One can add this spice blend in a curry while making the tadka of ginger garlic onion tomatoes. One can also use this spice blend with hung curd to marinate any protein or vegetables before grilling or barbecue. Either way, the result will be lip-smackingly delicious.

This spice blend took some time to develop as it is of utmost importance that the balance of aromatic and earthy spices is just perfect. Whole spices are carefully slow-roasted, ground individually and then mixed to create this flavorful blend.

StreetStyle Wasp Chilli Pickle

Ever heard of Wasp/Tattaiya chilies?? Even I hadn’t. The food-explorer side of me came across these chilies sometime back, small, slender and super hot! For those who do not know, Tattaiya means Wasp and these little chilies, definitely pack a sting 😛

And there itself I wondered, how delicious and flavourful its pickle would turn out to be.

Feel the aroma of fennel seeds, and that pungent essence of mustard oil in every drop

Joining our bestselling other street style pickles, this one also packs a punch, a punch you would want to savor with all your meals. We are told that these chilies are not readily available and hence not many are aware of it. Prepared in Punjabi style, the aroma of fennel seeds, the color of red chili powder, and that pungent mustard oil make this pickle uber delicious.

Baingan ka Achar – Goa Style
Goan Brinjal Pickle
Goan Brinjal Pickle by Masala Monk
I was born and brought up in Chennai and did my schooling from a Christian school. Most of my friends were and till date are Christians and a few were Anglo-Indian. When I was in 11th standard, we were students of home-science subject. Every Tuesday we would have a practical class and once our teacher had decided on having specialties from various states to be put up in one thali. My Anglo -Indian friend made this Goan Brinjal pickle. We all were very surprised at the name since we had never thought or imagined that any such pickle exists.

I remember when she started frying the brinjal, the whole lab was filled with such an aroma, that we all stopped what we were doing and ended at her station. It was mesmerizing to see her use minimal spices unlike our other pickles. The pickle was ready within some time, though when matured for a week or more it gives the best flavour. After the presentation and the marks session none of us could stop ourselves from finishing the whole pickle.

Relive your childhood days with Masala Monk’s Kamrakh ka Achar

When people gathered around the carts serving Shakarkandi (sweet potatoes) loaded with chaat masala and neembu, my eyes always looked for that green, star shaped fruit, aka Kamrakh, which was also, usually, served on the same cart. A bite of sweet khakarkandi followed by a bite of this sour and chatpata fruit. Aaah, love it so much 🙂

Add this pickle to your regular lunches or dinners for the much-required zing.

Yes, all you crazy pickle fans out there, from our quirky pickle series, we have got this Kamrakh ka Achar/ Star Fruit Pickle.

Kamrakh blended in an array of handpicked, home-roasted and ground spices, with a zing of mustard oil and a little bit of sun cooking.
