Ingredients:
Raw/Nearly raw Mango - 2 large
Chilly powder - 2 cups (yes, that is pretty hot, you may reduce it if you like)
Salt - 1/2 cup (Or) To taste
Light Olive oil - 1 to 1.5 cups (Use only "light" olive oil or use canola/veg oil)

Method:
Slice and dice mangoes into very small pieces.
Heat oil, add asafoetida and the mustard seeds. Wait for the seeds to splutter and then turn off heat.
In another dry bowl, add cut mangoes, salt, turmeric, chilly powder.
Lastly add the methi powder. Mix well.
Allow the oil to cool down a bit & then pour the warm oil over the mangoes and mix again.
Allow to marinate overnight at room temperature. You may refrigerate it after that Note: I have given the salt and chilly powder measurements as I like to make it. Pls make adjustments if you like it less/more salty or hot. There is no set rules to make this pickle.
Use in small quantities as accompaniments for rice dishes, chappathis, rotis, dosais, or idlis.
