The mixture is further enhanced with additional spices and allowed to cool before being stored. The result is a tangy, spicy pickle that pairs excellently with rice, chapatis, or as a standalone snack

​Bitter gourd pickle, or Pavakka Achar, is a cherished condiment in Kerala cuisine, celebrated for its unique blend of flavors that transform the naturally bitter vegetable into a tangy and spicy delicacy. The preparation begins by slicing bitter gourd thinly and marinating it with salt and turmeric to reduce its inherent bitterness. After allowing it to rest, the slices are squeezed to remove excess moisture and then fried until they achieve a light crispness. In a separate pan, mustard seeds are tempered in gingelly oil, followed by sautéing garlic, ginger, green chilies, and curry leaves. Spices like chili powder, turmeric, fenugreek powder, and asafoetida are added, and the mixture is enhanced with vinegar and sometimes tamarind extract for tanginess. The fried bitter gourd is then combined with this spicy mixture, and the pickle is allowed to cool before storing in airtight containers. This pickle pairs excellently with rice and can be refrigerated for extended shelf lifecontent Ithaas Chicken Pickle Ithaas Chicken Pickle Ithaas Chicken Pickle Ithaas Chicken Pickle Ithaas
