Bilimbi Pickle
Even if i think of this taste, my mouth is watering. It is lip smacking delicious. Bilimbi is a tart fruit which is available everywhere. It is very very cheap, you will get it even for free. This tangy fruit is normally added in fish curry instead of tamarind to give the tartness. When we get this, we usually add salt and chopped green chillies to it and let it sit for couple of days. It taste just yum. Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
