My teammate (from Southern India) and I were talking about these today, oddly enough. My mom makes them with diced lemons and a neutral oil, while my teammate grew up with them. I was told that the typical way to eat them is with yogurt and rice. Cheddar and English Muffins are other takes on the same thing, wouldn't you say? I didn't think of the combination either, but it makes sense! (And it implies several other options of milk and carbs...) I want to try it with goat cheese and sourdough bagels now.

I thought mustard oil was illegal in the us, as it is considered poisonous, (insert eyeroll) do you have a source?

Hi Sophia: You can find mustard oil on Amazon and likely in South Asian stores. Stores can sell if it they label it "for external use only." See more about that here: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/02/dining/american-chefs-discover-mustard-oil.html?_r=1
We also made the pickle with olive oil and it worked on just fine, considering that there are a lot of spices that keep the pickle quite exciting. Hope this helps.

Hmm, yeah, this is a pretty typical (southern?) Indian pickle. I never thought of having it with cheddar and English muffins! Love the spin!

Lime pickle Patak brand is in UK supermarkets. I like it on toast but have never thought of making it.
