What is the difference between North and South Indian pickle?

North Indian pickles (like Punjabi mango or mixed achaar) tend to be oil-heavy, bold and spiced with mustard and fenugreek.

Brands like Mother's Recipe and Panchranga cover North Indian styles; Priya and Telugu Foods specialise in South Indian varieties.
