Raw mango curry
Background
In India, summer is the season of mangoes. Ripe or raw we just love them. This tangy, sweet and sour recipe I learnt from my mom makes a great accompaniment with steamed rice. It gets even better when served with some papad.
Ingredients
- 1 medium size raw mango cut into pieces
- 2-3 green chillies chopped
- 1 onion chopped
- ½ cup Bengal gram dal
- 2 tsp sambar powder
- 1 pinch turmeric powder
- Salt to taste
- 1 tsp jaggery powder
- *For seasoning: *
- ½ tsp mustard seeds
- ½ tsp fenugreek seeds
- A pinch asafetida
- 1 spring curry leaves
- 1 Tbsp oil
Instructions
- Pressure cook Bengal gram dal with enough water and keep aside.
- In a wok, heat oil and put mustard, fenugreek seeds, curry leaves and asafetida.
- Once the mustard splutters, add onion and green chillies. Fry onion till brown.
- Add mango pieces, turmeric powder and salt. Add half cup of water and cook them till soft.
- Add the cooked dal, jaggery and sambar powder. Add some more water and cook for 5 minutes.
- If the mango is very sour increase the jaggery content.
- Serve hot with steamed rice.
