Raw Mango Chutney - the best chutney from my kitchen

Tried and tasted by Nivedita

Hi All,

Mangoes! Mangoes!! everywhere! I love mangoes! who doesn't?? Its always fun for me to try new recipes with Mango. This chutney I made yesterday back was just too yummy to finish!!! yes, I did not wanted to finish it fast so kept on nibbling like a mouse(nibbling the cheese).

Its the usual method which is prepared in each house. But this time it tasted some thing special.

Here is the recipe I want to give before I forget as I just went on adding the ingredients (imagining the taste) available in front of me  :-)

Two days back, we got mangoes from our trees in the garden. Mom ordered to keep the good mangoes to make pickle. I used the broken mango to make this chutney.

Ingredients:
Raw Mango - 1, big

To roast with 1 tsp oil

Urad dal - 1 tbsp

Chana dal - 1 tbsp

Cumin Seeds - 1 tsp

Mustard seeds - 1 tsp

Dry coconut - 1/4 cup, grated

Sesame seeds - 1 tsp(optional, but I love it)

Ginger - 1/2", cleaned and chopped

Dry coriander seeds - ONLY 4 TO 6 SEEDS

Methi seeds - 1 tsp

Curry leaves - handful

Dry red chilly - 1

To add 

Salt to taste

Red chilly powder - 1 tbsp

Jaggery - 1 tbsp

Hing - stoned- one pepper size or  a pinch of powder

Oil - 1tsp

Water to make the chutney wet, may be few drops or just 1/4 cup

Method :

• Wash and peel the mango, cut into cubes or grate it.
• Heat a tsp of oil in a pan, 
• Start adding the things the way I have written down the ingredients. Slowly roasting one by one till red chilly.
• Once everything is roasted well and you get nice aroma, Add the mango, fry for a minute and remove from the fire.
• Allow it to cool.
• Add all the ingredients and grind into a coarse paste, adjust the seasoning and grind again but keep it coarse.
• The raw mango chutney is ready to serve..

Yesterday I ate it with Jowar Dosa for breakfast, I ate with chapati for lunch and I had with hot rice for dinner.

And again today morning I had it with Thalipeeth, still saved it for tomorrow(Ants are great inspiration for me :-)) My friend saved the chutney by coming as I prepared Chinese food and I had no option to eat it :-)

Have I gone mad??? no I have gone mango :-))))))

Keep nibbling,

oops!!!

Keep Smiling,
