Not sure what it’s called, but I’m looking for a recipe for ‘masu ko aachhar’, the type you can bottle and store for a couple of weeks. Hopefully someone out there will know what I’m talking about!!
nhuchche Posted on 15-Jan-02 03:30 PM

if you ever learn how to make it, please send some my way. Anyone else who want to share it please contact me. Haven't eaten that thing i dunno the name either in over 10 years.

JDV,

wouldn't the meat go bad?
joie de vivre Posted on 15-Jan-02 04:44 PM

NK - No. It's prepared in such a way that it keeps good for a couple of weeks. It's nice and spicy and not too oily. Any wonder why I'm looking for this recipe so desperately??

Hey I know someone who does and I think she deep fries the meat so there is no uncooked part left. Its kurumkurum :).
and then she soaks it in oil, and various spices according to taste.

hey are you guys talking about sukuti?
joie de vivre Posted on 18-Jan-02 04:09 PM

no
moona Posted on 21-Jan-02 10:07 PM

how about using one of those "vaccum machine" to preserve for longer period of time.
NK Posted on 22-Jan-02 09:28 PM

hey did you make that masuko achar?
joie de vivre Posted on 23-Jan-02 10:39 AM

hey NK, I did try the masuko achhar. I should’ve known as soon as I saw the recipe that this wasn’t what I was looking for. The achhar turned out ‘ok’, a bit too oily for my tastes (you think? with all that deep frying!) even though I was extra cautious about draining it well and keeping the oil hot. I added some chili (but of course!) and that, with the lemon juice added some kick to it. My husband thought it made a great hors d’oeuvre though, esp. with his brewskis.
