Aamer Misti Aachar Or Raw Mango Sweet Pickle Maa Special

In summer season the most awaited fruit is Mango for all of us. And definitely in both form Raw and Ripe Mango. Raw mango whenever we think about this the first thing used to come in our mind is Pickle and Chutney. And I think with Mango we can make so many different types of Pickle. Some pickles are sweet and some pickles are sour. But in every way they are just mouthwatering.

My maa used to make so many types of pickle and among all of them my favorite one is Sweet Raw Mango Pickle with shell. Basically she learnt the recipe from my grandmother.  The basic ingredients are Raw Mango with shell, and jagerry. And if you keep the pickle in a glass bottle then you can keep this for long. Sweet pickle is more popular in West Bengal rather than the other part of India. If you are a pickle lover then you are sure going to love this.
