Mango
pickle is everyone’s favorite…Here is a mango pickle recipe made the Rajasthani
way; another recipe from my grandmaa’s recipe collection.
Mango
season is around and unripe mangoes are available in plenty. There are many
ways to make mango pickle. When buying mangoes for the pickle; remember not to
buy the one with fibers as these do not make the pickle tasty.
This mango pickle can be served with dal rice, khichadi or as a side with any veggie dish.
A few things to remember are: there should be no water or moisture in your jar in which you will keep the mango
pickle. The jar should be clean and dry. You can dry the jar in sun. Hygiene
and cleanliness are very important when you are making pickles, jam, sauces
etc. It will help the pickle last longer.
Step by step mango
pickle recipe:
- Rinse
the mangoes and soak for 1 hour in water. Take out mangoes from water and wipe
well with a kitchen towel.
- Take all the spices in a big plate.
- Pour oil in a pan and heat till it start smoking and then turn off the heat. Then carefully take a spoon full of hot oil and start pouring it on the split mustard seeds first.
- Once it is completely fried, then pour it over the fennel seeds (sauf) followed by nigella seeds (kalonji)
- Do the same with rest of the spices except turmeric and red chili powder.
- By the time its red chili powder’s turn the oil is sufficiently warm and it won’t burn the powder. So last but one will be turmeric power and lastly pour oil on the red chili powder. Mix all the spices together with a spoon and let it cool down on counter.
- Meanwhile, dice the mangoes in small pieces and discard the seeds.
- Once the masala cools down completely, add the diced mangoes to it.
- Mix everything well so that each piece of mango should get coated with masala.
- Pickle is ready but the mango pieces are not yet soft. It will take a weeks’ time. After that you can start having mango pickle.
