Carrot & Garlic Pickle

Pickles are usually a must have item in any south indian home, so is here in my nest.My hubby dear wants pickle with anything he eats; rice ,chapati or even dosas.

In my home back in India, there was always fish pickle made and sent to us by my kuttanadan Grand mom. She knows exactly when that bottle of fish pickle ends and she religiously sent the other one on time ;). So i was not a big fan of any other VEG pickles, since i was fed on this fish pickle...When i came here in US, Navee got me some (from stores)of his favourite Pickles, which he proudly said was his main curry during his MS and later his job days here. But i coudlnt stand the salty and tasteless pickle ,and i felt pity for my dear husband.

So i started making many pickles he likes , and this carrot and garlic pickle turned out to be a big hit.....This is originally my moms recipe , which she usually prepares to make us eat carrots :)

Though its a pickle, which is suppose to last for atleast a week or so,it wont last for more than 3 days in my nest ;), no matter how much i make. This hot,aromatic pickle adds a satisfying bite to any meal.
