kakka pickle

1kg = 1200rs Kakka pickle is a popular Kerala-style seafood pickle made using kakka / kadal kakka (mussels). It is especially famous in the coastal regions of Kerala and is loved for its spicy, tangy, and rich masala flavor.

Fresh mussels are thoroughly cleaned, boiled, and then shallow-fried until firm. These are mixed with a thick, aromatic masala prepared using ginger, garlic, green chillies, chilli powder, turmeric, coriander powder, vinegar, and garam masala, all cooked in coconut oil or gingelly oil. The pickle is finished with curry leaves, giving it a strong coastal aroma.
