This is a hot, sweet and sour pickle. The mint gives a refreshing finish. You don't taste it at first but then at the end it is there. This would be good with a hot curry or with some cold cuts of meat.
Ingredients (makes enough to fill a 300ml jar)
1 mango, peeled and roughly chopped
12 baby tomatoes cut into quarters
1 tbs vegetable oil
1/2 a large onion, finely chopped
2 fat cloves of garlic, crushed
3 or 4 chillies, finely chopped - I used 3 red birds eye chillies and one green jalapeño.
A handful of mint leaves, chopped
1 tsp kalonji seeds
Juice of 2 limes
1 tbsp sugar
Salt to taste
