Recipe makes for 2 1/4 Cups

1 large green mango (about 14 ounces)

¼ cup mustard oil or vegetable oil

1 tbsp cumin seeds

1 tbsp chile powder

2 tsp fenugreek seeds

3 cloves garlic, sliced thinly

2 tsp kosher salt

2 tsp asafetida

1 tsp ground turmeric

2 tbsplight brown sugar

¼ cup distilled white vinegar


Directions:

Wash, dry, and cut the mango into ½-inch cubes; do not peel it. You should have about 3 cups of fruit.

Combine the mustard oil, cumin, chile, fenugreek, and garlic in a medium skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the spices become fragrant and the garlic browns, about 4 minutes. 

Add the mango, stir to combine, and cook for an additional 3 minutes, until slightly soft.

Turn off the heat, and then add the salt, asafetida, turmeric, sugar, and vinegar. Combine thoroughly. 

Pack the pickle into glass or ceramic jars or containers with tight lids (avoid plastic, as it will retain this pickle’s color and strong perfume).
This pickle can be eaten immediately, but it is better if you allow it to sit at room temperature for 24 hours. 


Refrigerated, this pickle will last for at least 4 months.
