As soon as the summer season tends to end, I could smell the aroma of mustard oil in air coming from almost all the houses. This mango pickle has a special place in our hearts. An Indian thali is incomplete without achar(pickle). We Indians eat pickle with almost anything, like paratha, puri, khichdi, curd rice or even simple dal rice.
Here I am sharing my mom's recipe of aam ka achar.
Happy Cooking and keep sharing food love

Food is not simply stuff that people eat when they are hungry. Food is awesome, delicious, inventive, colorful, inspiring, and so much more. Food binds us together. You have no idea how much it means to me when you tell me that you made a recipe and loved it. My heart fills with joy. Literally.
