Get this pack of 3 different pickles, Mithila Special Mango Pickle, Jackfruit Pickle, and our bestseller Oal Barobar Pickle.

 

Pickle 1: Stuffed Red Chilli Pickle

Each chilli is deseeded and stuffed by hand — a slow process that defines a true Bharua pickle.

The legendary Lal Mirch Bharua is Bihar’s signature winter pickle.

It begins with the careful selection of thick red chillies, which are gently sun-dried and meticulously emptied of their seeds by hand.

These seeds are then mixed back into a vibrant, coarse masala of toasted mustard, coriander, cumin, and other aromatic spices, all bound with mustard oil.

Sun-matured over several winter days, allowing the chilli to soften and the masala to settle.

Each chilli is painstakingly stuffed, laid on traditional bamboo trays (सूप), and sun-matured for several days.

This slow process ensures the chilli softens and the spices bloom, developing a bold, savory, Masaledar flavor that is clean.

It is traditionally served with comforting plates of Dal–chawal, dahi–choora, or poori–bhujia.
