in on Saturday, April 14, 2012

        I don’t like ginger at all, except Mango ginger/Maa inji. I tasted them only once and was amazed by its taste. No smell of ginger at all,not even 1%. It was tasting like mango,only that its crunchiness,texture was like ginger! I never got a chance to make this maa inji uruguai before. Last weekend got this pack of mango ginger in Mustafa and without second thought bought it. My hubby asked to make pickle out of it,so called my mom to get the recipe. It was very very simple.

Notes:

  • The pickle tend to leave water after we add salt.
  • You can add fresh green pepper instead of green chillies like here.Since green pepper will be very hot(spicy)add more lemon juice and salt accordingly.
  • You can add finely chopped capsicum also in this same recipe.Also try adding all the veggies like carrot,cabbage,cucumber to make vegetable pickle.
