Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 cups Cut Raw Mango approx 2 small raw mangoes
  • ¼ teaspoon Fenugreek seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon Mustard Seeds
  • ½ tablespoon Red Chilli Powder adjust to taste
  • ½ teaspoon Turmeric Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt or as needed

For tempering

  • 4 tablespoon Sesame Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Mustard Seeds
  • Asafoetida a big pinch

Instructions
 

  • Wash the raw mangoes and wipe dry. Cut the raw mangoes into small, uniform pieces and place them in a clean, dry bowl.
  • Add salt, turmeric powder and red chilli powder to the cut raw mangoes and mix well.
  • In a pan, dry roast the mustard seeds and fenugreek seeds on a low flame until the mustard fully splutters and both mustard and fenugreek turn aromatic. The fenugreek slightly changes in colour too. Allow them to cool.
  • Grind the roasted mustard and fenugreek seeds into a fine powder.
  • Add the mustard-fenugreek powder to the bowl of cut raw mango pieces mixed with spices. Mix well again.
  • Heat the sesame oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds and asafoetida. Once the mustard seeds splutter, remove from heat.
  • Pour the tempering mixture over the mango and spice mix. Stir well to coat the mango pieces evenly.
  • Allow the pickle to cool to room temperature before transferring it to a clean, dry, airtight container.
  • Serve with curd rice or your choice of main dish.

Notes

While dry roasting mustard and fenugreek seeds, ensure you don't fry them for too long. The mustard seeds should splutter and the fenugreek should give a nice aroma. Do not allow the fenugreek to turn too dark. This will end up making the mustard and fenugreek powder taste very bitter. Also, fry them only on a low flame.
