Receta Mango – Ginger pickle
Adding ginger to raw mango gives it a distinct flavor and taste. This pickle is one of the famous pickles that are made with raw mango.
Ingredients:
- 1 Green Mango
- A small piece of ginger
- Handful of cilantro
- 5 or 6 Green chilies
- A pinch of Turmeric
- 2 tbsp oil
- Salt
- For Seasoning/Tempering:
- 1 tsp Oil
- 1 tsp Mustard Seeds
- 1 tsp Cumin Seeds
- A pinch of Asafetida
Few Curry Leaves
Method:
Wash the mango well and pat dry with a paper towel to remove wetness. Then peel and chop into cubes. Keep aside.
Peel and chop ginger into small pieces.
Heat oil in a pan and fry ginger and green chilies for about 5 minutes. Add turmeric and mix well. Transfer to a plate and allow them to cool down.
Then add these fried ginger + green chilies to a blender. Also add mango pieces + cilantro + salt and grind the entire mixture into a smooth paste. No need to add water, but if the chutney isn’t grinding well, then add very little water otherwise the chutney shall become too watery. I added little too much water and the chutney became little thin, though it tasted super delicious. So be careful while adding water.
Now prepare the seasoning by heating oil in a pan and adding all the ingredients under “For Seasoning/Tempering” in the same order. Pour this on top of the chutney and mix well.
Enjoy the delicious flavorful chutney with steaming hot rice. Yummy!!
