Mango Pickle Recipe: A Tangy Delight with Nutritional Benefits

Mango pickle, or "Aam ka Achaar," is a quintessential accompaniment in Indian cuisine. Bursting with bold flavors, it combines the tangy taste of raw mangoes with aromatic spices to create a mouthwatering condiment. Perfect with rice, parathas, or as a side to any meal, mango pickle is a delightful blend of tradition and taste.

Nutritional Value of Mango Pickle

While mango pickle is consumed in small quantities, it offers some nutritional benefits:
  • Raw Mangoes: Rich in Vitamin C, antioxidants, and dietary fiber, aiding in digestion and immunity.
  • Mustard Oil: Contains healthy fats and omega-3 fatty acids, supporting heart health.
  • Spices: Fenugreek, mustard seeds, and turmeric contribute anti-inflammatory and digestive properties.
However, mango pickle should be consumed in moderation due to its high salt and oil content.
