As we all know Mangoes are seasonal which goes out of sight after summer.  In olden days, during the rainy season, especially in rural coastal areas, people had very less access to vegetables. So they would preserve many seasonal things like raw mango,  jackfruit, hog plum etc in saltwater and use them during the rainy season by preparing various dishes out of it. Though now we have everything available throughout the year, the age-old custom of preservation in Brine is still followed by few.

Brined raw mango is one of my ever favorite. My mom prepares it every year and gives few to me to use them in off season. Basically , firm, matured un-ripened mango is preserved in boiled salt water stored in an airtight glass jar/porcelain jar. As they are preserved in brine, they last for a very long time.

Since now its Mango season, one can make this Brined raw mango raita using fresh ones. It will be spicy and tangy. Addition of onion and garlic adds a zing. Do try and I am sure you will love it .. and end up overeating :). Remember not to skip coconut oil .. which makes it tastier!!
