Instant Mamidi Avakai/ Mango Pickle

Avakai is one of the most popular pickle among all the pickles. I feel that all the pickle lovers will crave for avakai and wait eagerly for the mangoes season to come. And everyone at my home are pickle lovers and i tried here with the mangoes that i got it from some indian stores.

In childhood my grandmother use to make different types of pickles and she used to store it in large jars. In those days she use to pack us each and every pickle when we are back to our place. Those are the lovely beautiful days in villages we spent all the summer holidays. And coming to Avakai, it is such a big process which they use to make and need so much of patience and interest too. As generations change due to so many reasons like lack of time, place etc we love to eat such pickles but cannot make it at home as they do. So this is the way i tried some instant pickle and enjoyed it.

It can be stored in some dry place and preserved for 3-4months but i think that much time is more for it as it gonna be empty within days (that is the magic of Avakai).Its such an easy process and no need of any special ingredients too.
