Grated mango pickle takes the raw fruit down to shreds, which changes the texture entirely. It spreads rather than sits, and it mixes through rice without any effort.

This is the easiest mango pickle to eat. No stones, no big pieces, no negotiating.

Mix a spoonful through hot rice with ghee, spread it in a roti roll, or serve it with curd rice. Good for anyone who likes the flavour and finds the traditional cuts awkward.

Available at Curry Corner in North Melbourne.
