Mango Pickle
17 May, 2016
Coming to pickle, I never like pickle and the only pickle I like is garlic, that to happens very rarely. But hubby likes pickle particularly Mango pickle to the core. Have heard from his friends and their family that he makes pickle very well, but I have never ever had it. Today was right day for me, yeah he made Mango Pickle for me – yippee happy me.
The very first time I like the aroma, color and flavor of the pickle. I feel loosing me in the wonderful aroma of the Pickle (from the hands of my love). The pickle was aww with little tanginess and spiciness, now I like mango pickle to the core.
A very easy, simple and yummy pickle which can be prepared by anyone. Let us move on to the recipe…
