Ingredientsfor 4 servings
- 1 nos Green mango small
- 2 tbsp Coconut — grated
- 1 nos Green chilly
- Salt, to taste
- 4 tbsp Yoghurt/Curd
- 1 tsp Coconut oil
- Mustard seeds A pinch
- 1 nos Dry red chilliy (Kollamulaku)
- 1 Stalk Curry leaves
Preparation
Step 1
Cut the mango into fine pieces.
Step 2
Grind it with the grated coconut, green chilly and salt.
Step 3
Mix it well with yoghurt.
Step 4
Warm coconut oil in a kadai or a pan.
Step 5
Add mustard seeds, curry leaves and the red chilly.
Step 6
When it starts to allow to crackle, remove from fire.
Step 7
Add the above mixture of mango and yoghurt to this and Stir everything together thoroughly.

Tip
Grinding spices fresh makes a noticeable difference. Pre-ground powders lose their punch within weeks. Buy whole, toast lightly, and grind as you need.
