Raw Mango Moong Dal Pickle Recipe | How to make Raw Mango Moong Dal Pickle | (Pesara Avakaya)

Hi friends, thank you all for visiting my website. Today's recipe is raw mango moong dal pickle. Pesara avakaya or raw mango moong dal pickle is very simple to make. Pesara avakaya is less spicy and kids favourite pickle. Whereas regular Avakaya or Mango pickle is a spicy and mouthwatering recipe special to Andhra and Telangana. Though people of other states too make it, the spicy taste and the colour (that comes to it with the use of chilli powder) are exclusive only to the Telugu states. Making of avakaya or mango pickle is considered to be a big event during the summer season every year. Raw mango moong dal pickle stays for a period of one month to three months. Still we have to prepare in a clean and dry place. And, we should use only dry and clean spoons to mix it.

We have to be very carefull while choosing mangoes for pickling. Mangoes that are sour in taste and have fiber should be selected for the pickles, but they should not be too much sour also. When we bite them for tasting, we should get some fibre with it. This makes the pickle last long and taste great. While getting the mangoes is a task involving knack, cutting them is a herculean task. We use a special cutter for the mangoes that can cut the seed inside. The shell should not get separated while cutting, but the seed inside has to be taken off. The shell part should stay attached to the mango pieces to hold the ingredients to sink into the pieces -- the process of osmosis.

Still sometimes some of the mango pieces may get destroyed. They do not have their shell attached to them. So we make pesara avakaya with slightly destroyed pieces. As in the mango pieces which do not have hard shell. Actually we do not use those pieces in avakaya mango pickle, either we discard them or use them for raw mango moong dal pickle.

Now, coming to making of the recipe, the below mentioned quantities must be followed. They may vary depending on two things -- the sourness of the mangoes and the size of the mango. Usually, a mango can yield 8 to 12 pieces. Just in case, salt can be addedd after three days also. Here you go!!!

Hi friends, thank you all for visiting my website. Today's recipe is teepi avakaya or sweet avakaya. Summer is the season for mangoes. Avakaya or Mango pickle is a spicy and mouthwatering recipe special to Telugu people. But, teepi avkaya or sweet avakaya is sweet version of the most famous avakaya. Teepi avakaya is made with jaggery and sugar. We do not use regular mangoes for making sweet avakaya or teepi avakaya. We have to use only totapuri mango to make sweet avakaya or teepi avakaya. Totapuri mango does not taste as sour as other mangoes we use for pickling. It has got a bit sweet taste too. Normally we cut them and sprinkle little salt and chilli powder mix and savour them during summer evenings. This teepi avakaya can also be stored year long. Those who don't like sweet taste in spciy food cannot enjoy this. :D
All the instructions given for avakaya or mango pickle stands good for this teepi avakaya also.

Just follow the procedure instructions given in the recipe to get a proper teepi avakaya. If you don't get totapuri mangoes, only and only if you do not get them, use less sour tasted mangoes to make teepi avakaya. Teepi avakaya can be served with dosa or idli, it can replaced with any other chutney. The best side dish to munching with curd rice.

It is a blend of ground spices and used in most of the North Indian cuisine. Of course now a days it is added in some of the South Indian recipes also. My MIL is the inspiration for making it. She prepares garam masala powder at home in two ways one is sun dried and the other is roasting and making powder. She used to make coarse powder. She likes that aroma and its rough texture very much. Once I took over cooking and she is off from it, started using store bought garam masala powder. She disliked garam masala powder from stores, but poor lady never said anything. After some period I realized that she is not liking it so started making. I stay in an independent house and get lot of sunlight. The place where I live is too sunny and it's hot too. So, I prefer to make sun dried version only, a simple method. Get all the ingredients in one plate and keep it under the Sun for two to three hours and make powder.

Hi friends, thank you all for visiting my website. Today's recipe is erragadda karam. It is basically made with onions and red chillis. We Telugu people like to have spicy food most of the time. Chutneys or pickles are very important among them. In the breakfast menu, we wish to have only chutneys or spicy sambar and curry. Every day we may not be able to prepare chutneys so prepare one or two of them and keep them available. So that we can serve as and when it is necessary. Erragadda karam is one among them.
People of my native place Nellore call onions as erragadda, may be because of the colour of it. So chutney made with onions and red chillies are called Erragadd karam. It is the best accompaniment for dosa and idli or even serves it with upma also. It can be stored for one week or even more if we refrigerate it. I have learned it from my aunt when I visited her place last month. Always she keeps this chutney available on the table. Making erragadda karam is very easy, just soak red chillis and add one or two onions, cumin seeds, salt, and grind it to make smooth chutney for dosa and idli.
