Manga Achar/ Mango Pickle




Manga Achar/ Mango Pickle

Green mango pickle is a delicious and spicy condiment. We rarely get raw mangoes here and few weeks back , I was so glad to come across raw mangoes in our grocery store. I have already shared pickle recipes with mango like Kerala kadumanga/mango pickle and Andhra mango pickle/ aavakaya. This mango pickle is spicy,sweet and sour. 


Ingredients
Green Mango cubes- 3 cup
Garlic- 15- 20 pods
Ginger- 2 inch thick piece
Dates- 8-10
Chilly powder- 4-5 tbs
(or according to your spice tolerance)
Fenugreek powder- 1 1/2 tsp
Asafoetida-  1 tsp
Salt- to taste
Sugar- 1/2 tsp
Gingerly oil- 1/2 cup
Mustard seeds- 1/3 tsp
Vinegar- 1/2 cup
 



Cut mangoes into cubes. Sprinkle salt, cover and leave it in room temperature for 4-6 hours.

Soak dates in half of the vinegar. After about an hour make it into a paste.

Using a mortal and pastel crush ginger and garlic (around 10-15) into a course mixture. Slice the rest of the garlic.

Heat oil in  pan and add mustard seeds. When they splutter add sliced garlic and the  crushed ginger and garlic. Saute till raw flavor disappears.
Switch off the flame and add the chilly powder, fenugreek powder,asafoetida,sugar and salt as needed. Add the dates paste and mix well.Return to the stove and heat in low flame for a minute. Switch off the flame and add the chopped mangoes and left over vinegar.
Allow to cool down and then store in air tight bottle.


Try this,
Hope you will all enjoy!

Mushroom Kung Pao Kung Pao chicken is one of my favorite takeout recipes, and this vegetarian version with mushrooms tastes just delicious. Mushroom Kung Pao is my best healthy weeknight dinner. I finally hit my stride! This homemade version is easy to put together and better than takeout. Kung Pao is a popular Chinese dish from the Szechuan region. It is irresistibly appetizing and is savory, salty, and spicy. I like cooking it for dinner. Lunches are sometimes leftovers. Mushroom Kung Pao is a much-loved dish at home, so I always make a big batch. The mushrooms can be stir-fried quickly or batter-fried in hot oil for a crisp texture. Mushroom Kung Pao is an impressive dish, great for meal prep, and perfect for entertaining. Black oyster mushrooms add an interesting savory, umami taste, and it is best fried or sautéed.
