Homemade Pachranga Achar, also known as mixed vegetable pickle, is a flavorful medley of assorted vegetables marinated in traditional spices and mustard oil. This pickle typically includes a variety of vegetables such as mangoes, lemons, chilies, ginger, and more, each contributing its unique flavor and texture to the mix.

To prepare this pickle, the vegetables are cut into small pieces or slices and then mixed with a blend of spices, which may include mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds, fennel seeds, turmeric, red chili powder, and asafoetida. The mixture is then generously coated with mustard oil, which not only adds richness but also acts as a preservative.

The result is a vibrant and tangy pickle with a perfect balance of flavors and textures. It’s both spicy and tangy, with a depth of flavor that comes from the combination of spices and the pungency of mustard oil. Homemade Pachranga Achar is a versatile condiment that pairs well with a variety of dishes, adding a burst of flavor to every bite.
