Mango Murabba (Raw Mango Sweet Pickle)

Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Cooking Time: 20-25 minutes

Ingredients

3 raw mangoes

2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon cardamom seeds

2 small sticks of cinnamon sticks

3-4 cloves

Few stands of saffron

 

Method

Take mangoes, peel the skin and make small cubes.

Take a pan, add 1 cup of water, mango cubes and boil it till it becomes soft. Strain the water but collect the water in a pan.

Add 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water in the strained water and boil it again, stirring occasionally till sugar dissolves. Add mango cubes, cinnamon, cloves, saffron and cook till it turns into syrup-chasani of one thread consistency.

To check it, take a drop, put it between your thumb and index finger and press it. When you separate your fingers it should form a thread.

Let it cool down slightly. Add cardamom seeds and cool it completely.

Store it in air-tight container and place it in a cool place.
