Servings :
A quick and easy-to-make pickle that tastes great with rice dishes, daal or even with bread/parathas.
Ingredients
- 2 mangos, peeled and cut into thick strips (the ones that are not completely raw inside, but not completely ripe either...more a light yellow on the inside, green peel)
- 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into thick strips
- 6-7 green chillies, just make an incision in each one for the chili flavor to come out whilst cooking
- a few curry leaves/limro
- 1/2 tsp mustard seeds/rai
- 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic paste
- 1/2 tsp tomato paste
- 1 tbsp achar/pickle masala (it's sold in most Asian/Desi shops, kind of yellow/brownish/reddish dry aromatic spices)
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1-2 tsp salt (or as needed)
- 1 tsp chilli powder
- 2-3 tbsp oil
Instructions
Heat the oil in a small pan, and then add your mustard seeds. When they start to sputter, add your garlic and limro leaves, followed by the carrots. Stir fry the carrots for at least 8 mins until they start to soften (you can add a bit of water if you feel they are getting stuck). Sprinkle some salt to help further the softening of the carrots, then add the tomato paste and stir fry for a little longer. Add 2 of the green chillies at this point as well and a small sprinkle of the achar masala. Once the carrots are about three-quarters done, add the mango pieces, turmeric, chilli powder and the sugar. Stir fry for a few mins then add water to fully cook the carrots and mangos. Finally add the remaining green chillies and the rest of the achar masala. Cook for a few more minutes. Taste and adjust for salt/sugar/chilli. Switch off when you’re happy with the result!! 🙂

A.a.n thanx 4 ur great recipes,i bought achar masala bt it was in small grains kind of brown n yellowish,so should i grind it into powder or use it whole?
W/Salaam, use them whole not in powder form.
salaams,what do u mean by tomato paste? is it the tomato tin chopped and blended thats used for cooking?
W/Salaam, it is the concentrated tomato used in cooking, comes in a paste-like form.
