Chef, very tempting, but I have a question. I've always known that water near a pickle is taboo. The tamarind pulp was cooked in water. So can i presume it has to be refrigerated????

what is hindi name for gongura?

Indian Pickling is done predominantly in oil. It's not like you eat a plateful of pickles in one sitting. It's usually eaten like an accompaniment (a spoon or two) to a meal.

I see, thank you for informing me. I get scared when I see that much oil but I understand what you mean, thank you!
