Instant Mango Pickle | Kalyana Mangai Oorukai

Quick, Easy & Spicy !

Tips for making Instant Raw Mango Pickle:

• Preparing Fenugreek powder is a key ingredient in most of the pickle varieties. We have to dry roast the fenugreek seeds till they are red and then cool it and grind it to powder. We can’t grind very small quantities in mixie. So we can dry roast 1/4 cup of fenugreek and grind it. Store the fenugreek powder and use it whenever you make pickles, lemon rice, tomato rice etc.
• Measurement : Depending upon the sourness of the raw mango we need to adjust the quantity of chili powder and salt. If the mango is very sour, we need to measure 5 cups of chopped raw mango and add 1 cup of red chili powder and 1 cup of salt. If the mango is not sour enough, we can measure 7 or 8 cups of mango and add 1 cup of red chili powder and 1 cup of salt.
• Storage: Store the pickle in an air-tight container and refrigerate for longer shelf life. Always use dry spoon to serve to make sure the pickle stays fresh. Mix the pickle in regular intervals even if you are not using this will prevent the pickle from getting spoilt .
• Oil Usage: Store bought pickles always have more oil. For homemade pickles, if the quantity is less we don’t need to add more oil. We can use 2-3 tbsp of sesame oil for tempering and that will be sufficient. But if we plan to make more quantity, then we need to add warm oil to the pickle which helps to keep the pickle fresh without getting spoilt.
