Ingredients
Produce
- 2 Rajapuri Mangoes raw
- 250 gm Tender Ginger
- 500 gm Garlic
Spices
- 250 gm Mustard Seeds rai, broken
- 150 gm Fenugreek Seeds methi dana, broken
- 0.25 tsp Asafoetida hing
- 1 tsp Turmeric Powder haldi
- 1 tsp Salt sanchar, black
- 1 tsp Citric Acid
- 100 tsp Salt or to taste
- 6 tbsp Chili Powder red
Other
- 4 tbsp Oil
Instructions
- Wash and peel the raw mangoes.
- Coarsely crush the garlic and ginger separately. Do not blend into a paste.
- Heat the oil in a pan and sauté the crushed garlic over low heat until fragrant. Allow the garlic-infused oil to cool completely. This blooming process enhances the garlic's flavor.
- In a large bowl, combine the broken mustard seeds, broken fenugreek seeds, asafoetida, turmeric powder, black salt, citric acid, salt, and red chili powder. Add 2 tablespoons of the cooled garlic-infused oil to the spice mixture.
- Grate the peeled raw mangoes. Add the grated mango and crushed ginger to the spice mixture.
- Pour in the remaining garlic-infused oil. Mix all ingredients thoroughly, ensuring the mango and spices are well coated. Adjust salt and red chili powder according to your preference.
- Store the pickle in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Allow the flavors to meld for at least a day before enjoying.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- To intensify the flavors and add a subtle crunch, lightly roast the mustard and fenugreek seeds before grinding or adding them to the pickle mixture.
- If you prefer a milder garlic flavor, briefly blanch the garlic cloves in boiling water before adding them to the pickle; this also helps reduce bitterness.
- For a South Indian twist, try adding a handful of curry leaves and a pinch of asafoetida (hing) during the tempering process to impart extra aroma and complexity.
- You can add more oil if desired.
Expert Tips
- Experiment with different types of oil, such as sesame or coconut oil, to add unique flavor dimensions to your pickle.
- Adjust the spice levels to your preference by increasing or decreasing the amount of chili peppers used.
- For a visually appealing pickle, use a variety of colorful vegetables like carrots, bell peppers, or green beans.
Storage Instructions
- For enhanced shelf life and a deeper flavor profile, store the pickle in a sterilized glass jar.
- Set the jar in direct sunlight for 2-3 days, shaking daily to evenly distribute the spices and oils.
