Turshi is a staple in Chaldean households. Many always have it on the counter ready for eating with rice and stew or in sandwiches. As with all dishes, there are different versions depending on the cook. This turshi has a slight sweetness to it due to the addition of the apple juice. If you like yours spicy, you can add more jalapenos, other hot peppers, or more curry.
