Quick Cooking : Raw Mango Raita

Anyone remember the obsessive cooking/baking we did last year with mangoes? The same happened this year too, only I haven’t been getting the time to blog about it 😦 So here is one quick post today, no talking – a recipe, a picture and I will see you tomorrow hopefully with a fresh post with more words 🙂

Recipe – Raw Mango Salad

What I used

• 1 medium sized raw mango (or ripen but sour will do too)
• 1 1/2 cup curd
• salt to taste
• 1/2 tsp chilli powder
• 1/2 tsp roasted jeera powder
• 1/2 tsp mustard seeds
• handful of curry leaves
• 1 tsp of oil
• Salt to taste

How I made it

• Peel and grate the mango
• Mix curd, mango and salt together
• Add chilli powder and jeera to it and mix or spread in a cross if you want to decorate the raita
• Heat oil in a small pan, add mustard seeds and fry till they start sputtering
• Add curry leaves and fry for one minute
• Add it to the raita and bingo its ready to eat with roti and sabzi or with pulao… We eat it with baingan bharta and roti that day 🙂
