Local here also uses achar in chicken curries; nicely sharp /spicy I
thought ... (I'm sure I've had lamb, too)
Good luck with it!
They appeared to just stir in a spoonful near the end of the cooking; it
has appeared as a "stripe" through the curry ... so contrasting
flavours, not just "mixed" ...
Claimed as a Bengali thing ...
