As promised in my previous post, the next recipe is Manga chammandhi which I make with the kilichundan manga. I learnt this recipe from my MIL. I always make this chammandhi along with biriyanis. Its a very great combo. When it is off-season for mangoes, we substitute mango with lemon juice for the tanginess. This chammandhi is a very good accompaniment for kanji also. It is ground without adding water and all the ingredients are added raw. So stays fresh for a longer time.
Ingredients:
Coconut (grated) - 1 cup
Raw mango - 1/2 of a mango (kilichundan)
Green chillies - 5
Shallots - 3
Ginger - 10 grams
Salt - to taste
Coriander leaves - few
Mint leaves - few
Method:
- Wash the raw mango. Grate and keep it aside. You need not discard its skin.
- Peel the ginger and shallots.
- Put all the ingredients along with salt in a mixer and grind coarsely.
- In between open the mixer and mix all the ingredients with a spatula and pulse the mixer 2-3 times so that the chutney is ground evenly. Do not add water.
Easy Manga Chammandhi is ready!!
- Check the tanginess of the raw mango before adding it to the chutney.
- This chammandhi is very high on the spice level. If you want to reduce the spice level then you should also reduce the tanginess or the amount of raw mango.
