Mango Thokku

Cooking time : 20 mins
Mango Thokku is most people favourite. My Grandma used to prepare this so often and store it in a container for months. This is my all time favourite with Curd Rice / Milk Rice. Preparing Pickles in home is very easy and it don't contain any preservatives and much oil. This is a very simple and easy to make homemade pickle. Just give a try.
