Big green chili pickle is a tangy and spicy condiment made by preserving large green chilies in a flavorful mixture of spices, oil, and vinegar or lemon juice. The chilies are typically slit or chopped, then mixed with ingredients such as mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds, turmeric, salt, and sometimes garlic or ginger.

This pickle is allowed to ferment for several days or weeks, allowing the flavors to meld and develop. It adds a punch of heat and tanginess to meals and is often enjoyed as a side dish or accompaniment to rice, bread, or savory snacks.
