Instant Mango Pickle


We have a mango tree in our backyard and it started having fruits. So I decided to make Mango pickle ..first pickle for the season :)


Ingredients:
Mangoes - 8 cut into pieces as needed
Garlic - 1/4 cup crushed and chopped fine
Ginger garlic paste - 4 tbsp
Cumin seeds -  2 tbsp
Mustard seeds - 2 tbsp
Curry leaves - few
Dry Red Chilli's - 6
Red chilli powder - 3 tbsp
Red Chilli seeds - 1 tbsp
Salt - 2 tbsp (adjust per taste)
Ava podi / yellow mustard powder - 2 tbsp
Jeera - methi ( cumin - Fenugreek) powder - 1/4tsp
Oil - 1 cup


Cooking Method:
Clean and cut mangoes into pieces. 
Heat oil in a pan. Add cumin, mustard, red chilli seeds, garlic , dry red chill cut into pieces to it. Let is stay for a minute and add curry leaves, ginger garlic paste. Let is cook until it looses the raw smell. Now add jeera cumin powder, mustard powder and stir it well. Add red chilli powder and salt to it and mix it again.You can add oil again if needed.
Turn off the stove. 
Add all the mango pieces to this. Mix it well. Take it into a tight jar. You can warm little more oil and pour on top of the jar, if you want to store this for long time. Keep in room temperature for a day, then store in fridge Since these mangoes are initial ones from the tree they don't stay for months like the ones we have later in the summer season.
