Green Peppercorn Pickle-Pachai Milagu Pickle Recipe

March 14, 2015 by PadhuSankar 8 Comments

During my trip to Coorg, I saw many black pepper plants and coffee plants on the way. It reminded me of my mother’s fresh pachai milagu oorugai. My mother used to make green peppercorn pickle when we were young. We love it with curd rice. We eat curd rice just for the sake of this pickle. On my way back, I bought a bagful of fresh green peppercorns to make pickle with it. As soon as I came back, I made the pickle as it is very easy and needs just 3 ingredients. Today we will learn how to make pachai milagu oorugai/green peppercorn pickle following this easy recipe.

    Love it any time, one should ensure that it does not turn black with proper ratio of lemon juice and salt. Yours look perfect.

      Store it in a glass bottle at room temperature for 10-15 days. Refrigerate it if you want to store it for a longer period.

      Raw pepper is not as hot or spicy like green chillies. Adding crushed raw pepper gives a different taste to the dish.

    The fresh lemon juice that we use, is that diluted or concentrate? Approximately how many lemons should we use?
    Do you know any other recipes that can be made with the green peppercorns?

      Undiluted. The pepper should soak in the lemon juice.
