This is the first time I made a pickle with oil, that too
mustard oil.
It was liked by my family so I am drafting this recipe for Aps
Kitchen readers.
Hope you try it and let me know if you liked it.
Ingredients Of Aam Ka Achaar
2 1/2 Kg mango, chopped into small cubes/pieces
10 cloves of garlic peeled
50 gms mustard coarsely ground
100 gms dried red pepper or Kashmiri chilli coarsely ground
20 gms onion seeds/kalonji
100 gms fennel seeds/saunf
50 gms turmeric powder
300 gms salt
½ liter mustard oil
How to Make Aam Ka Achaar
1. Heat a pan to this add in ½ cup mustard oil into a smoking point, switch off the flame and add in the garlic cloves and close the pan and cool it
down into room temperature. Mix all the spices together and into the half cup
of oil (heated and cooled) to the mix. Sprinkle a little of this mixture into
the jar.
2.Take some mangoes and rub them well in the spice mixture. Pour
one layer of the mangoes in the jar and sprinkle some more achar mixture on
top.
3.Keep repeating the layering process with a sprinkle of
mixture till the all-mango pieces are used up. Put all the remaining mixture on
top of these layers.
4.Now heat the rest of the oil and cool it completely pour
into the jar. Keep in the sun for a week then store. The mango pieces will be
very tender in a month.
5.Serve with your favorite paratha or dal rice!
Aps Notes:
Please make sure the raw mango you are using here is sour as
we will not be using any other souring agent.
If you do not want to use mustard oil here then you can use
sesame oil but the heating process can be avoided, as mustard oil has a pungent
smell, we heat it and use.
