Ingredients
Tomato Pieces (65%): infuse the pickle with velvety, sun-sweet juiciness.
Sesame Oil: envelops each piece in warm, nutty richness that carries the spice aroma.
Tamarind: adds smooth, fruity sourness that deepens the vibrant tomato flavour.
Salt: balances sweetness with savoury depth and acts as a natural preservative.
Sun-dried, roasted, stone-ground spices:
Red Chillies: inject smoky heat and a fiery crimson hue.
Mustard Seeds: burst with sharp, floral pungency.
Fenugreek Seeds: lend gentle bitterness and complexity.
Turmeric: imparts earthy warmth and a golden glow.
Asafoetida: anchors the blend with savoury, umami-rich depth.
Acidity Regulator (INS 260): maintains consistent tang and safe pH levels.
Preservative (INS 211): extends shelf life without compromising brightness.
History
Tomato Uragaya emerged as a relatively modern addition to Andhra’s pickle repertoire—gaining popularity in the 20th century when tomatoes became widely cultivated. The practice of sun-drying tomatoes and preserving them with tamarind and spices was inspired by older techniques used for mango and lemon pickles, adapted to suit the juicy, perishable nature of tomatoes.
