Note:
      In case oil does not float, then you need to add oil and keep again for another whole day.
    Add salt and red chilli powder according to the sourness of the mango.
    If mangoes are sour, follow this proportion. Else, adjust the red chilli powder and salt accordingly.
    Use nice red variety of chilli which gives nice colour yet not too hot.
