Cook them for 15 mins or till they are cooked and then mash it . Heat oil in a kadai.

Now switch off the flame and let them cool down.Store in a air tight container in fridge.Serve with rice and curry or curd rice.  My Notes: Make sure that the containers and spoon you are using should be dry. I didn’t use vinegar in this recipe,if you are going to use the pickle for more than 6 months then add a tbsp of vinegar. If you handle it properly vinegar is not required. Whenever you are taking the pickle for serving just mix it from top to  bottom and then take the required quantity so that more oil will not come to the spoon.
