Quick mango pickles

Mango pickle

One of my friend passed on many mangoes when they felled down a whole tree.

I was wondering what should I prepare with so many mangoes.

I sliced the mangoes into small pieces and cooked it with little water, with 1 tbsp of salt and turmeric powder.

When it is done, I seasoned it by heating 1 tbsp oil in a kadai, add 1 tbsp mustard seed, some jeerakham, 1 - 2 green chillies, 1 pinch of chilly powder and lots of curry leaves. Sim the burner so that these seeds do not get charred.

How to make Mango pacchadi

Take 2-3 handful of jaggery powder to required water and allow it to dissolve and keep it aside. You can sieve it….( stones comes as free with the jaggery…. ;-):-D )

Heat 1 tsp oil in a kadai, splutter 1 tsp mustard seed, 1 tsp urudh dhal seed, 1 tsp kadala paruppu (channa dhal seeds). Sim the burner so that these seeds do not get charred. When the seeds change the color to light brown, throw some 2-3 slitted red chilly or 1-2 broken green chilly sauté it until they are slightly golden.

Add some chopped mango pieces to the above and add the jaggery dissolved water to it. Allow it to cook.

Finally add few neem flower and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
