Mango Pickle | Grated Mango Pickle | Special Desi Recipes

Mango pickle is a spicy and tasty pickle done with raw mango, spice powders, salt, ginger garlic paste, and oil. Usually, most Indians will keep this raw mango pickle in large amounts for a year long.

Here am sharing the perfect pickle with the perfect ingredients to store the pickle for about 1 year or more. Mango pickle is of different types, one is ginger garlic mango pickle in Telugu ( Allam mamidikaya pachadi ) done with ginger garlic paste, second is aavakai ( in Telugu aavakaya ) done with mustard seeds and the third one is sesame mango pickle ( nuvvula mamidikaya pachadi ) done with sesame seeds without adding the red chili powder and rest are of same but today post recipe is done with grated mangoes. Grated mango pickle usually did with less amount. But, mangoes in any form are a delicacy.

Many of us, grandmothers used to keep this type of pickle in a large amount and will send it to our family members. Keeping this mango pickle is one of the festival-type environments at home. The process involves bringing the mangoes. For this, we will select the perfect pickle mangoes and then clean the mangoes with a wet cloth in the market itself. Then the seller cut the mangoes into pieces. Cutting mangoes is also a technique. Mango sellers use to cut the mangoes so that all the pieces should get the pit ( Seed )  attached to it. This makes the pickle live for about 1 year without getting too soft. For grated mango pickles, we use another type of mangoes where the pit is very less.

Next after bringing the mangoes home, again have to clean with a dry cloth by removing the pitted skin, which is present slightly on the pit and will separate the pitless pieces for a small pickle ( Small pickle in the sense we use to keep sesame mango pickle with pitless mangoes).

Now the big work begins. If we keep ginger garlic pickle, we have to clean the ginger and chop it, in the same way, have to peel the garlic skin. This is one of the big time taking processes but one has to do it patiently. Even ready-made peeled garlic is available in the market. But usually, we don't prefer it because homemade is homemade. We used to start peeling the garlic and ginger one day before, to make the work easier. If not we have to do it on that day itself.

When done with chopped ginger and peeled garlic, blend them to smooth paste. While blending the smell of the ginger garlic paste will reach nearby houses. Again homemade ginger garlic paste is best and important for any pickles. To prepare ginger garlic paste, for 500 g of garlic, we use 475 g of ginger. The quantity of garlic is more than the ginger for a very nice aroma.

Then the cooking process starts, Firstly we measure all the quantities. Measuring the quantities is very important for a perfect pickle. We measure Mangoes, Pickle Chili Powder, salt, oil, etc. Here we use pickle chili powder which is available in the market. This chili powder will give a very nice red color to the pickle. Check out below for 1 Kg mangoes ingredients.

If we keep aavakai, we use it to blend mustard seeds. Keeping aavakai is very easy than the ginger garlic mango pickle. Measuring the quantities is very important for any kind of pickle.
