Mango Pickles

Hey, I remember my promise to share my recipe of mango pickle. 
As I have shared in my previous post, I had more than 12 Nam Dok Mai mangoes, dropped due to over-stimulation from liquid fertilizer I applied after fruiting. The application of the liquid fertilizer stimulated new growth of branches and and flowers, and caused the pollinated fruits to compete for food and had to finally succumb. Only 4 remain in tact and still growing.


Most of the dropped mangoes is this size or around 8 cm long. In case you have immature fruit drop like these, don't toss them away to your compost pile, instead, recycle them into a delicious simple pickle!


All you have to do is :

1. Wash and peel the rinds.


2. Slice thinly like the picture below. 


3. After that, rub the mango slices with 1-2 Tbs salt. Refrigerate for 30 minutes until the fluid drains and the mango flesh shrink in size. Then, wash the salt away. 

 4. Now you are ready to season it with 2-3 Tbs vinegar/apple cider vinegar, 3-4 Tbs sugar, 3 red chili (sliced). Mix it well. Refrigerate it half to one day before serving. It's yummy and crunchy!
