Sweet Mango Pickle is a delicious, saucy pickle made by cooking cubes mangoes in jaggery syrup & spices. Sweet Mango Pickle is a good alternate to the regular pickles & is liked by kids too.
am not very fond of pickles and one of the very few pickles I relish are the sweet mango pickle and garlic thokku.I am always sweet toothed and that carries in my taste for pickles too. Amma make mango thokku, and instant mango pickle both sweet and the spicy versions.
I love this sweet version more…I even eat it as such but it is best when served with curd rice, unbeatable combo I can say!

Notes
- The pickle stays well for 2 days in room temperature and in total up to 4 days if refrigerated.
- If more oil floats on top (as for any pickle) it increases shelf life so may be add 1/4 cup oil if you want more shelf life.
- Always use clean spoon every time.
- Also don’t keep metal spoon immersed in the pickle, the pickle will get spoiled easily.
- Grinding to a coarse powder gives the pickle a nice crunch while eating.
- This is instant pickle and you need not wait till soaking time. Just make it and serve it.
- The mangoes get half cooked in jaggery syrup so it is soft.
- Add spice and sweetness according to your taste.
