Chunda Mango Pickle
Ingredients
| Quantity: | Measure: | Ingredients: | Description: |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Kilogram | Mango - Raw | peeled, seeds removed and then grated |
| 1 | Kilogram | Sugar | |
| 7 | Teaspoon | Salt | |
| 3 | Tablespoon | Jeera/Cumin Seeds | |
| 1 | Tablespoon | Turmeric Powder | |
| 2 | Tablespoon | Chilly Powder, Red |
Method
* Put a griddle or flat pan on medium
heat. When hot, add the cumin seeds and roast, stirring often, till
fragrant and slightly darker. Remove from heat and grind into a coarse
powder. Keep aside for later use.
* Put the grated mango, salt and turmeric powder into a large plastic
mixing bowl. Mix well and leave for 30 minutes. At the end of this time,
put the lot into a muslin cloth, tie and hang to allow all the liquid/
water to drain out. This water/ liquid is not required in the recipe so
you can discard it.
* Once the water is drained, put the grated mango back into the mixing
bowl and add the sugar to it. Use a wooden spoon to mix the two together
till all the sugar is dissolved. This can take some time and effort.
* Once the sugar is dissolved, put the mango-sugar mixture into a
large, heavy-bottomed pan and set up to cook on medium heat. Stir often
till the sugar turns syrupy. Itshould get to a one-thread consistency.
Add red chilli powder and cumin powder, stir well and remove the Chunda
from fire immediately. This step is crucial as over-cooking will make
the sugar crystalize later!
* Allow to cool and then put into a sterilized jar. Store for up to one
month and eat with almost anything! Chunda tastes great with plain
rice, Chapatis (Indian flatbread), Parathas (pan fried Indian
flatbread), Thepla (fenugreek flatbread ), in sandwiches
