Prepare the mangoes: Wash the raw mangoes thoroughly under running water. Wipe each mango completely dry with a clean kitchen towel. There should be no moisture left, as this can spoil the pickle. Chop the mangoes into 1-inch cubes, discarding the inner seed. Keep the hard outer shell of the seed if you like.
Prepare the spice mix: In a dry pan, lightly roast the fennel seeds and fenugreek seeds for 1-2 minutes on low heat until fragrant. Do not brown them. Let the roasted spices cool down completely. In a grinder, combine the roasted fennel and fenugreek seeds with the split mustard seeds. Pulse a few times to get a coarse powder. Do not grind into a fine powder.
Mix mangoes with spices: In a large, dry mixing bowl, add the chopped mango pieces. Add the coarsely ground spice mix, nigella seeds, salt, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and asafoetida. Mix everything very well with a dry spoon until each mango piece is evenly coated with the spices.
Heat and cool the oil: Pour the mustard oil into a deep pan. Heat the oil on medium-high heat until it reaches its smoking point. You will see faint smoke rising from the surface. Turn off the heat immediately and let the oil cool down completely to room temperature. This step is crucial to remove the raw, pungent taste of the oil and help preserve the pickle.
Combine and mature the pickle: Once the oil has cooled completely, pour it over the mango and spice mixture. Mix thoroughly. Carefully transfer the pickle into a clean, dry, and sterilized glass or ceramic jar. Cover the mouth of the jar with a clean muslin cloth and secure it with a string or rubber band. Place the jar in direct sunlight for 7 to 10 days. Shake the jar gently once every day to mix the contents. After 7-10 days, the mango pieces will soften and change color. The pickle is ready to eat. Replace the cloth with an airtight lid and store in a cool, dry place. It will last for over a year.
