It's not something you could really easily make not having access to the fruit they use specifically. I know you can always get "mangoes" in most countries, but these are a certain type, I'm not even sure if they can grow anywhere outside of asia...I know for sure they don't even sell the TYPE here. If you were to use normal mangoes, it would be completely different, I imagine.
As for the recipe, on my jar, it says, aside from "those" mangos - salt, processed (undisclosed) spices, chilli (seems to be of the super hot south indian powdered texture and colour), mustard, methi & hing (I'm not even familiar with those two...could well be regional names for things that exist outside though) tumeric, asafoetida. They don't give any unit measurements... I would personally just hit up the indian grocery stores. A jar of these things is generally under $5, you get plenty, and they're excellent as is...the companies, well most of them, that make them have been doing so for years under similar conditions and recipes that go back generations, and this shows...Any indian grocery story will carry numerous types. Good value, good product. I personally wouldn't even attempt to undertake making them unless I was planning on going to india, even importing the fruit would probably be out of the question, and probably expensive otherwise. BTW, Urg - not all of them are oily. Try the one I reccomended, there's no oil in it, at all. Get either that, or another one with the full young mangoes in it. One type is like mango pickle (the big cut up peices), one is more like pickled mangoes. If your tolerance is high as you say, and you want that really intense hot and sour taste, you won't be dissapointed. http://indiaspicehouse.shopclassic.c...ProductID=3839 That's the one, and going by the price, you might want to have a look at this site too...even cheaper than I usually get this stuff. If not, it's a fairly popular brand, as I've been told, shouldn't be hard to track.

I might be able to get you guys a tradtional mango pickle recipe.
When my brother came back from india last year he gave cheebs and I 2 recipe books from Kerala. These books were written by some local indian chicky so when I get home I will have a looky through then and see what I can find out. Some ingrediants yes are gonna be hard to find but I think this book actually tells you what you can substitute some stuff with.
