    India is certainly a nation of pickles. With so many states, we have a pickle that represents every state of our country, indeed! Avakaya is a popular pickle that is prepared by the Andhra people in the southern part of India.

    It is made by using raw mangoes. The name ‘Avakaya’ is a combination of ‘ava’ which means mustard and ‘kaya’ which means mango. For preparing Avakaya, the Andhra people prefer using a variety of mangoes which are mostly uniform in size.

    Also, they are particular about using fully raw and sour mangoes that are hand plucked from the tree for making Avakaya. Keeping the same in mind, I thought of preparing this Andhra Style Mango Pickle at home.

    This particular one has ginger or Allam in it apart from the regular ingredients which are used to make Avakaya and hence the name Allam Avakaya. As my parents had sent us some of the choicest raw and ripe mangoes bought from a family friend’s orchard, making Andhra Style Mango Pickle got really easy.
