Atchara!!

[sars_notd_virus]

Yeeeey , I finally made my favorite appetizer (''atchara'' )here in the UK:hubbahubba:




Atchara is an appetizer made from pickled green papaya. Julienned or grated green papaya are placed in airtight containers and soaked for a week in cooked vinegar and sugar mixture with onions, garlic, ginger, pepper corn, and red bell pepper.

This is probably the most famous appetizer in the Philippines because every region seems to have their own version. This sweet and sour tasting appetizer is usually served with fried dishes such as fried tapa, longganisa, tocino, and even lechon manok. In addition, this can also give life to dull dishes.

We bought some pickled green mango the other week, just to try but my wife wasn't very keen on it. She enjoyed a pickled egg though with fish and chips...

Pickled papaya :hubbahubba::hubbahubba:


Yep, that's my all time fav pickle too.
Even far above the Japanese pickles for taste and complete versatility.

Usually we always have a jar in the fridge, but just now we're out.
Luckily we're visiting a friend in London this weekend so time to stock up with some fresh homemade 'treasure'.
