I have used super sour mangoes. You can adjust the quantity of spice and salt according to the sourness. we can consume this mango pickle straight after the preparation. Among all types of pickles, mango pickle is the favorite one of many of us. Traditionally, for making mango pickle, mangoes will be mixed in salt and rest it for 3 days, then it oozes out water content, then it will be tempered with spices and then we start using it. But many of us feel it is a long and time-consuming process, we skip all those things, after chopping we do tempering and then start using the mango pickle. For 2,3 days mango pieces would be hard, but after that will becomes soft. so the process is easy
Selecting mangoes:
- Select green mangoes which are firm outside means unripe mango
- The mango variety must be well sour. Only that kind of mangoes would be good for mango pickle, in this recipe, I used sour mangoes

- Before chopping the mangoes, wash it completely, wipe off with cloth or tissue paper, dry it.

Oil for tempering:
- Usually, sesame oil will be used for tempering the pickle, here i Have used the same. But we can use sunflower oil too in case of lack of sesame oil
Quantity of spice powders:
You can adjust the quantity of spice powders depends up on the tanginess of the mangoes. (if the mangoes are sourer, we can increase the spice powder. If it is less sour, better you can decrease the amount of spice powder)
What can we do, if we don’t have fenugreek powder instantly at home?
If we don’t have fenugreek powder at home, just dry fry 1 tsp of fenugreek seeds in a pan for 3 minutes, and then grind it mortor and pestle. If you are going to grind it in blender, you must atleast add 1 tbsp to grind in mixer.
