Hello Friends,

I'm back with one more winter special carrot pickle recipe for you. Sharing super quick carrot pickle recipe with step by step pictures.



Today's carrot pickle recipe is super quick, very delightful, perfect accompaniment for any meal of the day. This pickle is prepared in India in the winter season as fresh pink carrots are available in this season.

Pickle bottles or Jars - sterilized

Powder it - add all the ingredients in a mixer gtinder jar and powder it.

◾Keep this jar in sunlight or a warm place for two to three days and allow it to mature and shake this bottle every day. It will be ready to use within 4-5 days.
