Mango sweet pachadi

The last post I was rattling about the mangoes. There was whole bunch of mangoes left out still. Thought of making something sweet out of mangoes.

I sliced the mangoes into small pieces and cooked it with little water, with 1 tbsp of salt and turmeric powder.

When it is done, I mashed it thoroughly with a nice spatula till it became a uniform paste. Then added 1 tbsp of ghee and sugar to it and mixed it very well under the burner. Then added some cashenuts to it.

Mango pickle

One of my friend passed on many mangoes when they felled down a whole tree.

I was wondering what should I prepare with so many mangoes.

I sliced the mangoes into small pieces and cooked it with little water, with 1 tbsp of salt and turmeric powder.

When it is done, I seasoned it by heating 1 tbsp oil in a kadai, add 1 tbsp mustard seed, some jeerakham, 1 - 2 green chillies, 1 pinch of chilly powder and lots of curry leaves. Sim the burner so that these seeds do not get charred.
