Torshi Lift image

Of all the pickles prepared in the Middle East-and there are many of them - this is one of the most spectacular looking. A delight to serve with grilled and roasted meats. Be patient and resist the temptation to open the jar before they are ready! Once opened they will keep for 4-6 weeks in a cool place, if they last that long! From a favourite book The Complete Meze Table.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this torshi lift was surprisingly mild. I could definitely handle the heat.

This dish is a great make-ahead meal. You can make it ahead of time and then reheat it when you're ready to serve.

The torshi lift is a bit spicy, but it's not overpowering. It's the perfect amount of heat.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some extra carrots and celery, and they worked perfectly in this recipe.
