This summer is super hot. During summer I just fill my stomach with buttermilk. Rice, curd and pickle is one common and divine food for summer. I'm not a pickle person. It just happened that last week I bought some Amla because my son loves to eat it raw. Few Amlas were left out and I asked my friend Sripriya for pickle recipe (She is a great cook; people out there hop into her kitchen Sri's Kitchen to find interesting recipes). Today I tried amla thokku and it turned out yummy.
