Instant mango pickle | Kalyana manga oorugai | Nurukku manga aachar- Easy to make instant raw mango pickle recipe – Cut mango pickle recipe with detailed step-by-step pictures and full video.
Mango pickle is one of my favorite items served on the wedding menu. Sometimes when we attend a very close family wedding, we pack, puli kaichal, mango pickle, and some vadams from the marriage caterer. Amma makes very delicious mango thokku. Still, we love this venthaya maanga, that’s how we call this at home, very much. Usually, curd rice is the best pair for this oorugai, but we love this with sambar rice or kootu rice.
In Singapore, we used to get raw mango throughout the year, so I make this more often. We usually use kili mooku manga for making this Instant mango pickle. But here in Hongkong, we get urundai maanga | small round mango only. The roasted fenugreek seeds and mustard seed powder gives a nice flavour to this Kalyana manga oorugai.
