Ingredients
For the Pickle:
- ½ kg raw mangoes (washed and cut into small pieces)
- 3 tbsp salt (adjust as per taste)
- 2 tbsp mustard seeds
- 1 tbsp fenugreek seeds
- 1 tbsp Neyyar Turmeric Powder
- 2 tbsp Neyyar Chilly Powder
- 1 tbsp Neyyar Coriander Powder
- 1 tbsp asafoetida (hing)
- ½ cup mustard oil (or any preferred oil)
- 1 tbsp vinegar (optional, for extra preservation)
- 2-3 garlic cloves (optional, for enhanced flavor)
- 1 tsp sugar (optional, for balance)
- 5-6 curry leaves (for added aroma)
Instructions
Step 1: Preparing the Mangoes
- Wash the raw mangoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean cloth.
- Cut them into small, even-sized pieces and remove the seeds.
- Spread the mango pieces on a tray and let them air-dry for 1-2 hours to remove excess moisture.
Step 2: Preparing the Spice Mix
- Dry roast mustard seeds and fenugreek seeds in a pan until aromatic.
- Grind them coarsely and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
- Add Neyyar Turmeric Powder, Neyyar Chilly Powder, Neyyar Coriander Powder, and asafoetida. Mix well.
Step 3: Mixing the Pickle
- Place the dried mango pieces in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the salt and mix well to coat the mangoes evenly. Let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Heat mustard oil in a pan until it reaches a smoking point. Turn off the heat and let it cool slightly.
- Pour the warm oil over the mangoes and stir well.
- Add the prepared spice mix and mix thoroughly to ensure the mango pieces are well-coated.
- If using garlic, add crushed garlic cloves at this stage for extra flavor.
Step 4: Storing & Maturing
- Transfer the mango pickle into a clean, dry, airtight glass jar.
- If using vinegar, add it now for extra preservation.
- Let the pickle sit at room temperature for 3-4 days, stirring once daily.
- The pickle is ready to eat after a few days, but the flavor deepens over time.
Serving & Storage Tips:
- Enjoy the mango pickle with rice, parathas, or curd rice.
- Store it in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.
