    Have enough tomato left and I wanted to use it to the core...I did tomato dosa and chutney the other day...The next recipe that caught ma mind was tomato pickle...Anything based with tomato is ma favourite and when you get tomato for cheap rates all I do is stock it and utilize it to the maximum...And people who love tangy cum caustic recipes would love this pickle a lot.Below is the recipe part.
