Made with comparatively less spices and oil, the perfect grated mango pickle from Mithilanchal, Bihar. Mildly spicy & heat, and a lot of tanginess. In one word, KHATTA!
Ingredients used in Grated Mango Pickle
Include Raw Mango, Mustard Oil, Turmeric, Red Chilli Powder, Coriander Powder, Cumin, Nigella Seeds, Carom Seeds, Fenugreek, Fennel Seeds, Yellow Mustard, Asafoetida, Black Salt, Salt.
Mango varieties used for production of this pickle includes Malda, and Kalkatiya. These two varieties are specially chosen as they have significant amount of pulp, and tanginess. Spices are mostly sourced locally from farmers, and bazar samitis in Samastipur. We buy whole spices and clean, roast, ground them in our kitchen-factory.
The Process of Preparation, starts with the mangoes arriving to our kitchen-factory, freshly plucked from the tree on last evening. The first step is sort out the mangoes for any pieces that are damaged, or have ripened, and not good for pickling.
Once sorted, the mangoes are peeled completely. It is washed a couple of times in the water, and left in the sun for a few hours. Thereafter, the mangoes are grated completely in a grinder, and kept in a mixing vessel. Immediately the grated mangoes leave their moisture which is separated and discarded.
After a few hours, the grated mango is ready for adding Salt & Turmeric. This mixture is left untouched for 24 hours. Parallelly, a batch of masala is prepared, with the spices in the right proportions.
Once the 24 hours have passed, the masala is mixed with the grated mangoes, and oil. The mixture is left out in the sun for 7-10 days. It’s tasted for perfection, and is thereafter stored in the martabans.
In Mithila, we enjoy this pickle with dal-roti, khichdi, poori-bhujia, chawal-dal, jhaal murhi, and most of the daily meals.

Ghar se bhi dur ho ke ghar jaisa swad wo sirf jha ji se hi mil sakta hai.Taste to bilkul ma ke haat jaisa hai loved the taste.
I really loved the Kuccha Mango Grated Achaar. This was my 2nd order. And it finished so quickly coz most of my family members loved eating this mango pickle. The taste is really awesome. I have ordered my 3rd Kuccha Mango Grated Achaar. And I have also recommended it to my other family members to buy this pickle.
Thank you Jhaji Store for this yummy pickle..😊😊
It reminded me of my Nani k ghar ka aam ka achaar. The aroma of finely blended spices, pungency of the mustard oil and the taste of raw mango is above and beyond my expectations from a market bought Achaar. Loving every bit of it and would surely order more!
I have been buying the branded pickles available in the market but never satisfied as the taste was not authentic like home made. This one is exactly like my mother used to make pickles. My son liked it too. Thank you!!
Was waiting for exactly this taste outside Bihar for a long time and it has just the same taste. Never even thought that I would find these kinds of pickles in the market. These are definitely better than the ones found in the market and tastes just like home. Wonderful taste, feels exactly like my grandmother’s hand. My mother says it feels just like her own house’s flavours and it doesn’t feel like we’re eating anything made outside. Packaging is also superb with beautifully designed cloth inside it. Also the aroma from the pickles are amazing. Overall the pickles are great and would definitely buy them again and again and would recommend it to everyone who loves homemade pickles.
