Fry all the whole spices in 2 cups of the oil until they are light brown. Remove from the oil and grind to a smooth paste. Set aside. Put the rest of the oil in a saucepan and heat well. Add all the ground spices and stir for 1 minute. Add all the dry mangoes. Stir together over fire very briefly and remove immediately. Allow to cool completely to room temperature.
