Method

Chop the mango into small pieces. Mix the chopped mango pieces with chilly powder, fenugreek powder, hing and salt in a bowl. Keep it aside for a few hours.

Alternatively, you can pour this tadka over the pickle that’s kept aside and mix well. Cool and store in an airtight container.

Tips:

You could add around 2 tbsp yoghurt to 3 tbsp or so of this pickle for an extra taste but consume it within 1-2 days. Add extra salt if needed.
