Preparation:
Heat oil in a pan. To that add mustard seeds. When it pops reduce heat to low and add chile powder, salt, asafetida, turmeric and stir for about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat. Let it cool for a while. Add this mixture to the cut mangoes and mix thoroughly. Keep this for 7-8 days for the flavor to seep into mangoes. You can add a little bit of distilled vinegar if you like. It will help to keep the freshness. This is the Kerala mango achar. |
