Ingredientes

• 1 kg green mangoes (cut each into 4 pieces)
• 1 tablespoon coarse salt
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 cup white vinegar
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 8 garlic cloves (smashed )
• 100 gram pickle masala
• 2 tsp ground cumin
• 2 tsp ground coriander

Preparación

1. 1

   Cut the mangoes into 4 pieces. Rinse well and drain any excess water.

2. 2

   Add the salt to the mangoes and allow it to stand for about 2 hours. Drain the excess water and pat the mangoes dry with some paper towel.

3. 3

   Spread the mangoes on a tray or an oven cooling rack and place it in a warm sunny place, for about 8 hours, to dehydrate.

4. 4

   Place the sugar and water in a saucepan and cook until it thickens. Take some syrup between your thumb and forefinger and when you take your fingers apart it should form a single thread. That confirms it's ready or you can be slightly thicker. Allow it to cool slightly.

5. 5

   Place the mangoes in a bowl and pour the vinegar in. Heat the vegetable oil in a pan and add the garlic, the pickle masala and spices. Cook for 30 seconds and add it to the mangoes. Mix well and add the sugar syrup.

   Store the mangoes in a large sterilized glass bottle and refrigerate
