Instant pickles are always welcome at our home, whenever i feel like preparing some homemade instant pickles, i'll go immediately with the veggies or simply with garlic cloves, this time my small mind wanted to combine garlic cloves along with some large green chillies i got freshly from the farmer's market to make some instant pickle through microwave oven...Its took less than 20minutes in microwave oven and the final result was absolutely tremendous, a wonderful flavourful pickle which goes prefectly as side dish to serve along with rotis or simply with any sort of rice..To give the tanginess to this pickle, i went for amchur powder instead of vinegar..Quite a spicy and fingerlicking pickle to enjoy with anything, its stays prefect for more than a week if you conserve them properly..But believe me or not, we have already finished the whole bottle within three days..Do check other marathoners running this 8th edition of blogging marathon with me
