Instructions

  1. Prepare the mangoes:
    • Chop the raw mangoes into small bite-sized pieces, leaving the peel on if preferred.
    • Mix the chopped mangoes with salt and set aside for 1-2 hours to release moisture. This helps the flavors develop faster.
  2. Dry roast fenugreek seeds:
    • In a small pan, dry roast fenugreek seeds until they turn light brown and fragrant. Allow to cool, then grind into a coarse powder.
  3. Heat the oil and temper spices:
    • In the same pan, heat Mustard oil on medium flame.
    • Add mustard seeds and let them splutter.
    • Add asafoetida, and stir for a few seconds.
  4. Mix the spices and mangoes:
    • Add, red chili powder, and the ground fenugreek powder to the oil. Stir for a few seconds, making sure not to burn the spices.
    • Remove from heat and pour this spice-oil mixture over the salted mango pieces. Mix well until the mango is evenly coated.
  5. Rest and store:
    • Allow the pickle to sit for at least 1-2 hours for the flavors to blend.
    • Transfer the pickle to a clean, dry glass jar. It can be eaten immediately but tastes better after a day. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
