WOW! Is what I said when I tasted it the first time 6 yrs back...then if there is no Priya (mango avakkai especially) in the store shelf then there is no pickle at home.no turning back...no comparison...coz it does not have GARLIC...best suited for south Indians who dont have garlic.
Mothers recipe is equally good but still I would go for Priya. The lemon and mango pickles are the ones I always go for. Every bite of the mango avakkaay is to die for should really try it to enjoy it.
