Raw Mango, with salt and chilli powder brings back childhood school memories.
The mango season has just begun, specifically RAW MANGOES.
This spread/chutney I learnt from my childhood friend's mom, who used to live next door.
She would make this chutney and spread it along with butter on sandwiches.
I still cannot forget the taste of the yummy sandwiches she would make.
This dish has 2 variants :
Variant 1. A spread for Sandwiches.
Variant 2. the traditional Indian chutney eaten with rice, rotis, dosa.
Ingredients:
Mango - 1 small cut into small pieces
( preferably thothapuri )
Dry Red Chillies roasted - 6-8 ( depending on taste )
Jaggery - size of 1/2 a lime
Coconut grated - 1 handful
Salt to taste
Extra Optional ingredients for seasoning for Variant 2 :
Olive/any other oil - 1 tsp
mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
curry leaves - 4 leaves
Hing/Asofoetida - 1/4 tsp
Method :
Grind all the above ingredients along with a lil water into a paste. Garnish with mint leaves.
Variant 1 :
The spread for Sandwiches is ready - This can be used as a spread along with butter or cheese.
If you do not have fresh coconut you can use desiccated coconut available in all grocery stores/super market.
If you do not want to use coconut at all, u can still make the spread without it.
Variant 2 :
Heat oil in seasoning pan, add mustard, when the splutter, add hing and curry leaves.
Will lightly fried pour on the Spread/Chutney and mix well.
This goes well with Dosas, Rotis and Rice/Rasam/Sambhar.
