PRODUCT INFO
Discover the refined taste of our gourmet Brinjal Pickle, a luxurious condiment slow-cooked for 12 hours to perfection. This artisanal pickle features tender brinjal pieces that have absorbed a blend of high-quality ingredients, creating a condiment that’s both rich and sophisticated.
Our pickle starts with succulent aubergine, gently cooked in vegetable oil with fresh garlic and ginger, which provides a robust, aromatic base. Dark muscovado sugar adds a touch of caramelised sweetness, while Kashmiri chilli powder introduces a mild, earthy warmth.
The intricate flavour profile is enhanced by a carefully balanced mix of spices, including mustard seed, cumin seed, and fenugreek seed. Tamarind concentrate contributes a delightful tang, beautifully complemented by Maldon sea salt and the fragrant freshness of curry leaves.
Perfect as a zesty accompaniment to Indian breads, a vibrant addition to rice dishes, or a flavourful enhancement for sandwiches and salads, Brinjal Pickle transforms everyday meals into gourmet experiences. Enjoy the rich, layered flavours achieved through our slow-cooking process, and savour the exquisite blend of sweet, tangy, and spicy notes in every spoonful.

Reviews
I love this brinjal pickle from The Chilli Project. I have bought numerous jars from Rick over the last 5-6 years. For me, it hits the sweet spot between flavour, heat and texture - especially with those gorgeous chunks of aubergine. We add it as an accompaniment to curries, but I have also found that adding it to natural yoghurt makes an excellent marinade for fried chicken.
Rich, full flavoured with just the right amount of heat. Served with cubes of lamb, lamb koftas, buckwheat, chickpeas, peas, broad beans and fresh salad as a nod to the eastern flavours. Just gorgeous and kicks the commonly found supermarket Aubergine chutney right to the kerb ! A hit with our family !
