Achari simply means a potato curry which taste like pickle yet is served as a delicious curry..The good part about this recipe is, it is a combination of both curry and pickle and the taste is just mouthwatering with the flavors and spices used..I would say the taste is a bit sour and of course as it is called as pickled potato or achari aloo, the taste must justify the name.
