"A fiery Andhra classic, steeped in tradition and bursting with boldness."

Trsna’s Mamidi Avakaya is a celebration of Andhra’s culinary soul

Our pickles are handcrafted during peak mango season, in small batches at the heart of Andhra Pradesh, using only locally sourced, peak-fresh ingredients and a traditional heirloom recipe passed down through generations. We refuse to cut corners or swap out a single ingredient (not even the oil), preserving the authentic taste that defines Mamidi Avakaya.  

A vibrant fusion of tangy raw mango and robust mustard, expertly balanced with sun-dried chillies and heirloom spices to deliver an unforgettable crunch and a crescendo of flavours in every bite.  Every jar is sun-kissed, stone-ground, and steeped in authenticity. No shortcuts. No compromises. Just pure, bold tradition in every bite.

Elevate every meal with the bold, authentic taste of Mamidi Avakaya, where every jar tells a story of heritage, seasonality, and uncompromised quality. Bring home Trsna’s Mango Mustard Pickle and transform your kitchen into a celebration of true artisanal flavour.

  • Raw Mango Pieces (65%): delivers bright, juicy tartness and hearty texture.  

  • Sesame Oil: infuses a warm, nutty richness that carries the spices.

  • Whole Mustard Seeds: burst with pungent heat and a floral, mustardy aroma.

  • Salt: harmonises all flavours while acting as a natural preservative.

  • Sun-dried, roasted and stone-ground spices:  

  • Red Chillies: add a smoky, lingering warmth.

  • Fenugreek Seeds: lend a subtle bitterness and depth.

  • Turmeric: provides earthy undertones and a golden hue.

  • Asafoetida: anchors the blend with savoury umami notes.

  • Acidity Regulator (INS 260): ensures safe, consistent pH and bright tang.

  • Preservative (INS 211): extends shelf life without compromising freshness.

Mamidi Avakaya has been a staple in Andhra kitchens for centuries. Traditionally prepared during peak mango season, it was a way to preserve the bounty of summer. The recipe—passed down through generations—was often guarded like a family heirloom, with each household adding its own subtle twist.

  • “Avakaya” comes from “Ava” (mustard) and “Kaya” (raw fruit) in Telugu.  
  • It’s so iconic in Andhra cuisine that it’s often called the King of Pickles.”  
  • In many Telugu households, summer isn’t complete without the annual ritual of making Avakaya—often treated with the same reverence as winemaking in France.
  • Flavour: Pungent mustard meets tangy mango with a spicy crescendo.  
  • Taste: A bold interplay of sour, spicy, and umami with a lingering heat.  
  • Texture: Chunky mango pieces with a grainy, spice-laden oil base that coats the palate.
  • Rich in Antioxidants: Mustard seeds and turmeric help fight inflammation.  
  • Digestive Support: Asafoetida and fenugreek aid gut health.  
  • Vitamin C Boost: Raw mangoes support immunity and iron absorption.  
  • Natural Probiotics: Traditional pickling methods promote gut flora (when unpasteurized).
  • Mix with hot rice and ghee for a soul-satisfying Andhra staple.  
  • Serve as a side with curd rice, pongal, or khichdi.  
  • Spread on rotis, parathas, or even sourdough toast for a tangy punch.  
  • Add to cheese boards or mezze platters for a spicy Indian twist.
  • Avakaya Aioli: Blend with mayo or Greek yogurt for a spicy dip.  
  • Pickle Fried Rice: Toss with leftover rice, onions, and curry leaves.  
  • Avakaya Pasta: Stir into penne with sautéed garlic and cherry tomatoes.  
  • Pickle-Stuffed Paratha: Mix into dough or use as a filling with paneer.  
  • Avakaya Tofu Stir-Fry: Add to pan-fried tofu and bell peppers for a fiery glaze.
  1. What makes Trsna’s Mamidi Avakaya special, compared to other brands?

Trsna’s Mango Mustard Pickle is made using 65% raw mango pieces, sesame oil, and a heritage spice blend that’s sundried, roasted, and stone-ground for flavour intensity. We prepare it during peak mango season, in small batches, at source. Unlike commercial shortcuts, we stick to heirloom recipes and never replace traditional ingredients, especially the oil that defines its authenticity. There are no gimmicks—just soulful, honest craft.

  1. Is the pickle spicy?

Yes, expect bold South Indian heat! Our Avakaya delivers a hearty punch through red chillies and whole mustard seeds, balanced with turmeric and fenugreek for warmth and complexity. It’s fiery but flavourful.

  1. How should I store the pickle after opening?

After each use, wipe the jar rim clean, seal it tightly, and refrigerate. Always use a clean, dry spoon to prevent moisture or contamination, ensuring the pickle stays vibrant and safe.

  1. How long does the pickle stay fresh?

Unopened, it remains at peak flavour for 12 months. Once opened and properly stored in the refrigerator, it stays delicious and safe to eat for 6–8 months.

  1. Are there any additives or preservatives used?

Only minimal food-grade acidity regulator (INS 260) and preservative (INS 211) are added to ensure safety and shelf stability. No artificial colour, flavour enhancers, or substitutions—ever.

  1. Is the pickle vegan and gluten-free?

Absolutely. Mamidi Avakaya is 100% vegan and naturally gluten-free. It contains no dairy, grains, or animal-based ingredients.

  1. Can I use it in cooking or only as a condiment?

Both! Stir into vegetable stir-fries, grain bowls, or curd rice for a burst of tang and spice. It’s also a stellar side with dosas, rotis, or even sandwiched into grilled cheese for fusion flair.

  1. Where is the pickle made?

Trsna’s Mamidi Avakaya is handcrafted in coastal Andhra Pradesh, using fresh seasonal mangoes and locally sourced spices. Every jar reflects the bold spirit of its region of origin.

  1. Do you ship internationally?

Yes—we offer international shipping to selected countries. Rates and estimated delivery times are calculated at checkout based on the destination.

  1. What’s the best way to enjoy it the traditional way?

Mix a generous spoonful of Avakaya into hot steamed rice with a dollop of homemade ghee for a deeply satisfying Andhra-style meal. It also pairs perfectly with curd rice or warm chapatis.

    Loved the pickle! The pieces of mango were infused with the pickle oil and they were fresh. Good-work Trsna.
