Uppu Sogi / Mango Pickle


There are different styles of mango pickle in India with state wise recipes. During  mango season only these Mango pickles are prepared and all are busy in preparing mango pickles. I have been preparing different types mango pickle for the last 20 years in every summer. My mother also used prepare and kitchen is filled with jars filled with different varieties of mango pickle.

I am writing a rare type of Mango Pickle called Uppu Sogi. It is made out of mangoes mixed with til powder etc. Very tasty. Takes very little time for preparation. Normally in Telangana side they prepare it. My sister who is Hyderabad prepares this Uppu Sogi and we are very much fond of it. My son and daughter also like this very much. No spicy no karam but very tasty. Hurry up and try it this season.
