This is my favorite pickle but never tried on my own.Last month when i saw this cute baby mangoes in tekka market I got so tempted over this and bought some.I called my sil and asked her the recipe as she is an expert in making pickles.

Here I am sharing this with you.

During our school day's this use to my hubby's ususal lunch box and I grab his lunch box only for this maavadu and enjoy to core...well confuse?  We both studied together :D  ...I'm so glad I tried this on my own and it came perfect.

• Grind the Dry Red chillies and Mustard seeds in mixie into course paste with little water.
• Add grounded paste, turmeric powder, salt, hing with mangoes and mix well.
