The ingredients that make up achar can be simple and seasonal. All Indians have dozens of pickles at their disposal: assorted or mixed pickles, lime, chili, gooseberry — the list goes on.

It all begins with raw mangoes at the peak of the season, chosen for tartness and firmness, with each region boasting about their variety of mangoes and recipe as the best.
