Lasang Pinoy Sundays: Achara [freestyle]

Photobucket

…my very first ever home-made Atchara [pickled papaya] as requested by the husband. his most favorite appetizer. yeah right. like he needs one, huh? okay…palate cleanser? allow me to say that it was really good!:) the big bowl didn’t even make it to at least 2 weeks of having it every single night? i only managed to bring a small bottle to my cousin in Connecticut. got some good raves as well from their end:)

credits to my neighbor Stel for her SPECIAL ACHARA recipe, thanks! i will be posting it on my other blog soon, promise!:)
UPDATE: RECIPE is now POSTED @ MOMCOOKS.DADCOOKS

LaPiS-button is a weekly thematic FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY meme, Pinoy style!

  6. I cooked atchara only once in my life… so far! And that was ages ago, Masarap naalala ko. If only I can find green papayas maybe I will try again.

    Yours look appetizing indeed!
