Hot Mango Pickle

Servings 5 jars (500g each)
Prep Time 2 hours
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 2 hours 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 5 kg raw mango
  • 1 litre mustard oil
  • 1 ½ kg sugar
  • 2 ½ gm ground mustard seed
  • 500 gm vinegar
  • Salt to taste
  • Chilli powder to taste
  • Turmeric powder to taste
  • Garlic ground, to taste

Instructions

  • After properly washing the mangoes, cut each mango into four quarters. Set aside.
  • Mix the mangoes with small quantities of the powdered chili and turmeric powder. Coat the mangoes evenly.
  • Spread the mango pieces out on a tray under the sun to dry for 3-5 hours. Make sure they are evenly dried.
  • Pour the mustard oil into a cooking pan. Add the ground mustard seed and garlic. Add the dried mangoes and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring regularly to ensure the mangoes don’t burn.
  • Add the sugar and stir the mangoes well over the flame, allowing the sugar to melt and mix with the oil and spices.
  • Once the sugar has melted, add the vinegar to the pan and stir to combine.
  • Continue cooking until the mangoes become soft and pulpy. Once ready, remove the pan from the heat.
  • Allow the mixture to cool. Once cooled, pour the pickle into jars for storage. The pickle can be stored in a cool place for several weeks.

Notes

Feel free to adjust the spice levels based on your preference. You can add more chili or turmeric for a spicier version. Let the pickle sit for a few days to fully develop its flavor.
