In an effort to lower my cholesterol, I am trying to eat more fish. I was craving tuna salad (the kind with mayo) the other day and thought it would be nice to have something like a mango-pickle or ginger-pickle that I could just come home, warm up some frozen paratha, and eat with some yogurt and my protein-filled tuna ki achar.
Unfortunately, I searched the internet for such a recipe and could not find anything, suprisingly. The following is the closest that I found so if anyone else has any ideas, please let me know. Since part of the goals are decreasing my cholesterol, I was hoping for something that was not fried and more oil/vinegar based. When I actually try it, I will post the results.
