These are 2 recipes my aunty Fatima made to accompany the akni + dhay recipe previously posted. Goes well with traditional Indian rice dishes, perfect for a Friday lunch. Mind I only have a picture of one of them, sorry about that. When I try and make this next time I will defiantly take a better picture and update this post.
I will also say, I know in southern africa achaar masala is sold almost everywhere, if you are international you can try checking in the supermarket in the Indian section, you can check at the spice shop or you can look up a recipe online. I personally don't know how to make it, but I will check for the best recipe to post up so anyone can make for themselves.
ONIONS KACHOOMAR
Slice up some onions and soak them in salt water.
Than drain them out.
Make a seperate mix of apricot jam and green masala.
Mix this with the onions.
Serve with the the Indian rice dish.
APPLE KACHOOMAR
Chop up some apples, cucumbers and carrots.
Add achaar masala and lemon juice.
Mix well and also this can be served with an Indian rice dish.
Hey, I’m Zainab — cooking (and eating) is how I embrace my chubby cheeks, and bring a little joy to the kitchen! I love blending flavours, spices, and cultures to create recipes that are as fun to make as they are to eat. Think bold spices, fusion twists, and meals that are fancy enough to impress but easy enough to whip up any day of the week.
Every recipe I share is something we’ve actually eaten at home — no food styling fakery here (well, maybe just a bit of garnish magic). My step-by-step photos and videos walk you through every stage, so whether you're a kitchen newbie or a seasoned pro, you’ll plate up something delicious and beautiful in no time.
