KERI KA ACHAAR / RAW MANGO CHILLI PICKLE ( DADI’S RECIPE)

Wishing you all a happy #AchaarDay
I celebrated #achaarday to celebrate the vastness of India and it’s culture. Every home makes a different achaar, every person will make the same achaar differently .sabke hatho ka swad achaar me alag alag aata hai, aur dusre ke ghar ka achaar jayada bhata hai .This is what India is about.

I made Keri ka Achaar from my Dadi’s recipe.I tried my best ki Dadi ke hatho ka jadu chal jaye ..
