God Keri Aachar

“God Keri Aachar” is a traditional Indian pickle made with ripe mangoes, commonly found in the western state of Gujarat. The term “God” means “sweet,” and “Keri” means “mango,” while “Aachar” refers to a type of Indian pickle.

To make this pickle, ripe mangoes are peeled and cut into small pieces. These pieces are then mixed with a blend of spices and sugar. The spice mix typically includes ingredients such as mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds, cumin seeds, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and asafoetida (hing). The mixture is then placed in a jar and left to mature for several days, during which time the flavors develop and intensify.

The unique aspect of God Keri Aachar is that it has a sweet and tangy taste, as opposed to the more commonly found spicy and tangy taste in other Indian pickles. The sweetness comes from the ripe mangoes and sugar, while the tanginess comes from the spices and the process of pickling.

God Keri Aachar is a versatile condiment that can be enjoyed with a variety of Indian dishes, such as parathas, puris, and rice. It is also a popular accompaniment to snacks such as samosas and pakoras. The sweet and tangy taste of this pickle makes it a favorite among people who prefer milder flavors.
