  • In another bowl mix mustard seeds + fenugreek seeds, red chilli powder, salt, & asafoetida.
  • Heat oil very well till smoky. Let it cool and pour over this mixture.
  • Add mangoes to this mixture so all chunks are coated with the masala once it cools down, Combine it well. Check for salt, I usually add more salt than my taste limits as its the best preservative (more than a tablespoon)
  • Add citric acid, mix it well.
  • Transfer to a clean jar and press down lightly.
  • Allow it to marinate about 1 day.
  • Take out in small quantities for use in a small glass jar.
  • Since this is the fastest way to mango pickle, it stays good in refrigerator more than 3-4 weeks.

Note: I use the same method to make instant pickle out of green bell pepper, Grannysmith apple, cranberry & carrots.
