Indian Pickled Onions
Honestly, these days, I don't bother with precise measurements for onions, vinegar, or chilies. I maintain a jar of pickled onions in the fridge, adjusting the ingredients as needed throughout the week. It has become a staple in our refrigerator. As an avid onion enthusiast, I believe it's essential for any Indian meal. Moreover, it complements burgers, eggs, wraps, and turkey sandwiches, not just Indian dishes.
Ingredients
- 1 cup thinly sliced red onions
- 1 –2 serrano peppers or Indian green chilies thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons white vinegar can add more if you’d like
- ¼ teaspoon salt to taste
Instructions
- Combine the ingredients together in a bowl and mix well – the onions will soften a bit as they sit (I like to make mine the night before serving, but a few hours will do).
- You can keep this in the fridge for up to a week.
Notes
- If you use regular onions, then slice them in rounds before pickling.
- Use fresh onions to get the best flavor and taste.
- The recipe can be scaled to make a large batch.
