Bharela Gunda nu Athanu भरेला गुंडा नु अथनु (Gum Berry Pickle from Gujarat) Recipe - Ranveer Brar

Ingredients
Process

Ingredients

40-45 Gunda

For the Spice Stuffing

1 cup Yellow split mustard seeds (rai kuria)

1 tbsp Turmeric powder (haldi)

1 tsp Asafetida (hing)

3 tsp Chili powder (lal mirch powder)

2 tbsp salt (namak)

2 tbsp Fenugreek seeds (methi dana)

2 tbsp lemon juice (nimbu ras)

2 cups + 2 tbsp oil (tel)

Process

Wash gunda berries well and spread out on a kitchen towel to air dry completely.
Heat 2 cups oil and let it cool to the room temperature.
When dry, cut the gunda on one side and scrape the seeds out with a salted knife. The salt helps cut through the gummy insides of the gunda berry. When done put in a bowl with a little salt and turmeric powder and mix well.
Meanwhile combine mustard seeds, turmeric, asafetida chili, salt fenugreek, lemon juice and t tbsp oil. Mix well. Stuff the cavities of the prepared gunda berries with prepared spice mixture, filling in a sterilised, clean dry air tight pickle jar as you go.
When done pour the oil over the stuffed gundas ensuring they are completely immersed in the oil.
The pickle will be ready to serve in about a week and will last upto a year.
