Orange Pickle

yes you read it right!

I know you're surprised. I had never heard of such a thing before too - until I ended up experimenting with oranges today. I had bought some really cute oranges yesterday, but they turned out to be very sour - I'd have to add 3-4 tsps of sugar to their juice just to make it edible. So an idea popped into my head - let's try pickling them! And the result turned out to be so delicious - me and my husband ended up keeping aside the dal and veggies for dinner, and just had the pickle! So next time when you get hold of sour oranges, you know what to do with them. And I'm sure you'll love this recipe so much, for all you know, you might end up hunting for sour oranges next time!
