wash and wipe mangoes very well.
Peel raw mangoes and then make slices or cubes as per your choice.
Take the raw mango pieces in a glass or plastic container and mix with salt ,turmeric and 3 tbsp oil
Now cover the container with a lid and keep in sunlight for about a week .
When raw mango pieces become tender and the water syrup becomes quite thick then add asafoetida, 1/2 cup oil,chili powder and jaggary. (If making in small quantity then can skip adding oil )
Mix it well and keep in sunlight for 2 days and start using after 2-3 days.
Note-
- If you don't want to add jaggary in the pickle then add 1/2 cup of mustard oil .
- If making in small quantity then can skip jaggary and oil both.
- Use glass or plastic containers only,don't use metal vessels.
- Use good quality of strong asafoetida,the quantity of asafoetida depends on the quality of hing.
- The size and cut of pieces depends on your choice,you can slice or cube the raw mango.
- It may take about a week to 15 days to completely dry the water and to soften the mango pieces.
- Kashmiri chili powder is added to give a bright red colour to the pickle but you can use only normal red chili powder instead of using both.
