Recently, I made onion pickle to be served along with murtabak for my daughter’s 3rd birthday party. Traditionally, this pickle is red in colour. So, to keep up to the tradition, I also coloured it RED. Let me share the recipe of this very simple sweet and crunchy pickle.
Onion Pickle
What do we need:
1 large onion
4 tbsp vinegar
4 tsp sugar
1 drop red food colouring (optional)
How do we do it:
In a jar, mix vinegar, sugar and the red food colouring. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
Peel the onion, wash and pat dry. Cut it into half lengthwise and slice very thinly. Place the sliced onion into the vinegar mixture. Set aside.
Within 2 hours the pickle would be ready.
Serve Onion Pickle with murtabak or simply with sambar and rice.
