Raw Mango Rice / Maangai Sadam

Me and dad rate rice varieties more than sambhar and rasam. So atleast 2 days of a week would surely have some kind of rice variety in the lunch menu.

Raw mango being in its peak season surely deserves to be cooked in as many ways as possible. So out of the infinite varieties it can add taste to food, this is one among my most favorite :)

A tangy and spicy rice with potato chips made my day :) It would surely make yours too :)

Ingredients:

Raw Mango - 1
Green chillies - 2
Red chillies - 2
Asafoetida - a pinch
Jaggery - 1 tsp
Salt - for taste
Mustard - 1/2 tsp
Urad dhall - 1/2 tsp
Channa dhall - 1/2 tsp
Curry leaves

Method:

Peel the skin of the mango and chop them roughly.

Grind the chopped mango pieces with green chillies, red chillies, asafoetida, salt and jaggery into a smooth paste.

Take a pan and add 5 tsp of oil. Splutter mustard, urad dhall, channa dhall and curry leaves. Now add the ground paste and fry for five minutes. Switch off the stove and collect it in a clean bottle.

Add few tspn of this paste to cooked rice and mix well to make raw mango rice. Serve with potato chips.

Yummy and tangy raw mango rice is ready :)

Enjoy making :)

Tips:

You can store the prepared raw mango paste in the refrigerator for 10 days and use.
