Instant Mango Pickle / Quick Mango Pickle / Raw Mango Pickle

After a long time I am so happy to find some Raw Mangoes Here in Indian Store. The raw mangoes which we get here in local grocery stores will not be firm, tangy n doesn't taste great. But a month back during my visit to Patel Brothers(Indian Grocery store) saw this green Raw mangoes. Mangoes were sturdy so tangy n tasted so good like the one we get in India. I was so happy to see and bought few mangoes. we ate all the mangoes as such with salt n chilli powder, me n H love it that way more. As we get it after a long time we could not control our self n had it as salad n snack :) Then i wanted to make few mango recipes for blog and bought 2-3 lbs and tried few recipes to share here in my space.

Here comes the first recipe, Instant Mango Pickle. This pickle is one of the easy pickle that u can make it in a jiffy. This pickle is common in all special functions like Wedding, Baby Shower/Valaikkappu since its easy and quick people mostly prefer this pickle to serve for any feast. This pickle goes well with Curd Rice, Sambar sadham, Lemon Rice, Rasam & rice or you can enjoy this as such like a salad. This is so simple to make, just chop and do tempering that's it...Tangy & Tasty Mango Pickle ready.
