Instant Raw Mango Pickle
Gone are the days when we used to have 'Naani ke Haath ka Achaar'. When we used to sit around and curiously happy to see how it is prepared. How each mango was chopped with that traditional cutter of wooden base. At that time, achaar was prepared in one home but it was distributed in whole family/cousins or nearby. But now a days we don't have time even to prepare it for ourself and we prefer readymade for its long shelf life too. As, summer is an ideal season for Mangoes. So, I chose mangoes being a versatile ingredient either you can make chutneys, shakes, compote, curries and many more. Though, mango pickle is not my thing I love lemon pickle much with lots of ajwain (Carom seeds) but mango is seasonal ingredient and why not to recall those old good days as being a twin child, am raised by my Naani and even my mom is not good enough to prepare pickles. ☺️
Coming to the recipe, I have prepared it simply by chopping raw mangoes at home itself. Then prepared ground spices and mixed them with chopped mangoes. You don't even need any fancy /highfy foreign ingredients to prepare it. All you need is a cooked 'Sarson Ka Tel' or few key ingredients such as Fennel, Chironji or Methi seeds. I have used a vinegar in this recipe but it is completely optional to use it. As Naani ke Haath ka achaar recipe says NOT to add it but for it's long shelf life, I have added it. It will surely sustain if you prepare it with lots of Mustard Oil.
