Traditional Andhra-style Bittergourd Pickle/Kakarakaya Pachadi from Organic Options. Made with tender bittergourd slices salted, sun-dried, and slow-cooked in cold-pressed sesame oil with tamarind, Guntur red chilies, mustard, and rock salt. No vinegar, no artificial preservatives, no colors.
The sun-drying + tamarind process balances the natural bitterness while keeping karela’s health benefits intact. Thick, spicy-tangy gravy that coats each piece. Matured 20+ days in ceramic jars for authentic taste. Preferred by diabetics and Ayurveda followers for blood sugar support.
Pairs best with hot rice + ghee, curd rice, jowar roti, or as a side for dal. Handmade in small batches to ensure traditional flavor. Sesame oil forms a natural protective layer to increase shelf life.
Ingredients: Bittergourd, Cold-Pressed Sesame Oil, Tamarind, Red Chili Powder, Mustard Seeds, Fenugreek, Rock Salt, Turmeric, Asafoetida 
Net Weight: 300g 
Shelf Life: 9 months from packing 
Storage: Always use clean, dry spoon — water spoils pickle. Store in cool, dry place with lid tightly closed. No refrigeration needed. Mix well before use as oil rises to top naturally. White deposits are salt/spices, not fungus.
Note: Distinct bitter-tangy taste — popular in South India. Hand-cut pieces vary in size. Spice level and color darken as it ages — sign of natural pickling. Contains mustard and sesame. Not recommended for those who dislike bitter foods.
