Notes:
Make the powder a bit coarse so that it adds a nice crunch to the pickle.
Adjust spice level according to your preference.
Keeps well for 3-4 days in room temperature. May be it will keep well for 2 more days of refrigerated. Additional oil can be used oil must be boiled and cooled before adding to the pickle to increase the shelf life of the pickle.
Choose raw mangoes that are firm. 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 steel spoon immersed in the pickle, the pickle will get spoiled easily.
This is instant pickle and you need not wait till soaking time. Just make it and serve it.
