Gongura Pickle

Gongura pickle is a traditional South Indian condiment made from the leaves of the gongura plant (sorrel). Known for its tangy flavor, the pickle typically combines gongura leaves with spices like mustard seeds, fenugreek, and red chilies, along with tamarind and oil for preservation. It’s often enjoyed with rice, dosa, or as a side dish, and is celebrated for its unique taste and health benefits, including high vitamin C content. The preparation can vary by region, with some recipes incorporating garlic or jaggery for added flavor.
