Close the jar with an airtight lid and seal with wax. Alternatively, tie a soft cloth around the lid and seal with

For the pickle
1 kg salted tender mangoes
½ cup chilli powder

Preserve the mangoes in brine in a 10-litre jar. The liquid should cover the mangoes. If more liquid is required, use the brine from the salted mangoes, adding more chilli powder to it, if necessary.
