Most of us from would have fond memories of climbing the Mango tree(s) either in our own houses or our grandmum's house or even better ( stolen from the neighbors house) . Come summer and so does all those wonderful memories. Apart from eating them raw with salt and chilly powder, for those with no patience to wait until you can pickle it after a couple of weeks, here is something easy and yummy that you can prepare a couple of hours before your meal.
Here is what you will need:
- Raw sour green mango - 1 large or 2 medium Chopped finely.
- Salt - 1 tsp ( Adjust according to your salt intake and the mango quantity)
- Red Chilli Powder: 1 1/2 tsp
- Ground Fenugreek Seeds: 1 tsp
- Asafoetida/hing: 1/2 tsp
- Gingelly Oil : 2 tablespoons ( you dont have this, go buy some! Not worth making the pickle without this :P )
How to make the pickle :
- Add salt to the chopped mangoes and leave it to soak it all up for an hour.
- Heat the oil, and when it is at a high temperature, add the powders and take it off the flame.
- Pour the oil mix into the mangoes. Taste to fix the hing/salt.
- Your pickle is ready !
This is amazing with Idli/ Dosa/ Phulkas / Curd rice and even bread :)
