When we talk about pickles, Fresh Mango Pickle is top on our list. Now we have not figured out if  we eat pickle with food or food with pickle! What we love about this one is the crunch in the mango and it can go from the refrigerator to your plate to your stomach in less than an hour…how cool is that? This Fresh Mango Pickle is from South India and is called Maangaa Curry or Maangai Keeru In Tamil.

  1. Wash and cut the mango into small pieces, with or without the peel, discarding the seed.
  2. Add Salt and Red Chili Powder to taste and mix well.
  3. In a small skillet on medium heat, warm the oil.
