Avakaya | Andhra Mango Pickle Recipe
I love pickles and can totally survive on pickles if given a choice. Avakaya or Andhra mango pickle is one of my favorite pickle along with Rajasthani mango pickle I simply love both. Avakai+ghee+steamed rice is just heaven for me and I can eat that every day. My BIL used to mix rice, ghee and avakai together and distribute among all and we used to fight who will get more mango pieces.

Summer and Mango goes hand and hand and so mango pickle, like in most homes my mom use to prepare 10-15 kgs of mango pickle for the years around and same goes for in-laws now though the recipe is different. Last year I posted my sister version of Rajasthani Mango Pickle recipe which always looks attractive & delicious and today is going to be my another favourite mango pickle which is not only easy to prepare but also it’s instant. When I didn’t even started cooking or hardly enter in kitchen still the 2 things I use to prepare was Lemon and Mango pickle(this version), from this you can see my love for these pickles. I wanted to post this recipe last year along with Sweet Mango Pickle as made this last year too but couldn’t click cause it got over before that! If you haven’t tried this version of mango pickle/ Manga Oorugai then you have to and you sure going to love it.

Sweet Mango Pickle
This recipe is from my sister again and the history of this pickle and me goes long back during my schooling days. My friends use to bring this pickle along with roti/paratha for lunch box and I would happily eat these.
I never knew making this pickle is as easy as blinking eye and just with 4 ingredients. This makes very good lunch box for kids, pack it with roti/paratha and see how the enjoy it, I use to do a lot.
Ingredients:
Raw Mango - 3
Sugar - 1 Cup
Cardamom Crushed- 3
Turmeric Powder - 1/2 tsp
Method:
1. Wash and grade the raw mango.
2. In a pan/wok saute the grated mango for 2 minutes. Add sugar and cook until sugar dissolves.
3. Add turmeric powder, cardamom mix everything and cook in slow flame until sugar syrup evaporates and mango gets cooked around 7-10 minutes.
The pickle is will be sticky due to sugar so handle with care. It stays up to a week in room temperature and 2-3 weeks in fridge after that the mango bites will become hard.
Goes well with plain or stuffed paratha. Even with plan dal-rice/rasam or curd rice. Try it with rasam and it will taste like pineapple rasam and I like this with curd rice too.
Have a nice day ~~
Aam Ka Achar | Mango Pickle Recipe
We all love mango pickle don't we? You don't ...hmm that's bad then this post is not for you. And of course everyone has their own way of making pickle. The method I'm posting today is Rajasthani style, a recipe from my sister. Sis prepared and got this pickle from India, I thought of posting this for my own reference as I love this pickle and always wanted to know the recipe. This pickle is tangy, spicy and goes well with roti, paratha, puri, khakra, upma, dal-chawal or just with anything.
Ingredients:
Raw Green Mango - 1 kg [ medium size]
Salt - 4 tbsp
Turmeric Powder - 2 tbsp
Kashmiri Red Chili Powder - 8 tbsp
Saffola/Vegetable Oil - 1/2 kg
Black pepper Corn - 10
Cloves - 4
Yellow Broken Mustard Seeds - 4 tbsp
Salt - 4 tbsp
For tempering:
Fennel Seeds/Saunf- 1tbsp
Nigella/Onion Seeds/Kalonji - 1 tbsp
Asafoetida/Hing - 1 tsp
Oil - 3tbsp
To Grind
Fennel Seeds/Saunf - 2 tbsp
Fenugreek/Methi seeds - 1 tbsp
Method:
Here is all the spices we use.
1. Cut the mango in pieces (like 8-10 pieces of each mango), wash and dry in Sun for 30 minutes.
~ The mango pieces should be dry, if not pat dry with cloth.
2. Mix 2 tbsp salt and turmeric with mango pieces and keep side 4 hours.
3. Heat 1/2 kg oil until it's about to boil and keep aside for it cool completely.
4. Grind coarse fennel and fenugreek seeds separately (from the 'for grind' ingredients) and mix with red chili powder, mango pieces and keep aside.
5. Meanwhile in a small pan or wok heat oil and add all tempering ingredients, saute for a minute and pour on mango mixture.
6. Now add cloves, pepper corn, yellow mustard seeds, salt and mix well for all the mango pieces to get coated with spices.
7. Add the heated oil (which should be on room temperature now) to mango, spice mixture stir well and keep it in Sun for a day.
8. Next day put pickle in a sterilized and dry glass bottle or pickle jar and store.
Now the pickle is ready to consume and it stays for a year if kept properly.
Note:
~ Always make sure oil floats on top, press down the mango pieces with a dry spoon.
~ Always use clean n dry spoon.
~ It's better to keep small pickle jar separately for daily use to avoid touching the pickles every day.
~ Once in a while place the jar/bottle in Sun.
~ One can tie a muslin cloth on jar/bottle mouth this way the pickle gets air and remains fresh.
~ The red chili powder used in this pickle is important to have that nice red color, make sure you use good quality chili powder.
