In this instructional video, Dr. Priti Nanda Sibal presents a traditional Indian green chili pickle recipe that aligns with her Food Medicine and Diet approach. She emphasizes the cultural importance of pickles in Indian cuisine and outlines a step‑by‑step method: start with three heaped spoons of pure mustard oil (or coconut oil as a regional alternative), temper half a tablespoon of rye (mustard) seeds until they splatter, add a half‑small spoon of cumin (jeera) seeds and toast them to a light brown color, then stir in half a spoon of salt. The green chilies are washed, halved, and sun‑dried for two hours before being fried briefly in the spiced oil mixture. The video highlights careful temperature control, the importance of not over‑browning the spices, and the simple yet flavorful result that can be used as a condiment or digestive aid.

Pickles have been at the heart of our traditional food. Welcome to a new recipe from Food Medicine and Diet. And today we are going to make pickle. Green chilli pickle. So what I've done is I've taken 3 heaped spoons of mustard oil. This mustard oil is pure. Try and get as pure as you can get. If you don't have mustard oil, or if you are from South, use coconut oil. You can use coconut oil also. So after this, so 1/2 tablespoon of rye seeds and I'm going to add in this. Yes, and wait. Just be careful that you don't come on you. So once they have splattered, I'm going to take half small spoon, right, of jeera seeds and add it here. Let them turn into light brown, so not dark brown, light brown. And now I'm going to add 1/2 spoon of salt. Perfect. Yes. And now in this, I have actually, you know, I washed these green chilies, cut them into halves, and then had kept them in sun for 2 hours so that they go dry. Fry them in this mixture for a little while. Yeah, perfect.
