Notes

  • Cut mangoes can be added with skin or without skin as per your preference.
  • Adjust jaggery syrup according to the sourness of raw mango.
  • I used kili mooku maanga.You can use any variety of raw mango.
  • Adding rice flour paste is also optional, it is just to give thickness to the curry.
  • This keeps well for 2-3 days if refrigerated.
  • You can replace red chilies with green chilies too.
  • If you prefer to peel off the skin of raw mango then peel it. You can even add mango seed but i usually discard it. Amma adds it at times.
  • You can either add rice flour paste to thicken the pachadi or add 2 tablespoon coconut paste.
  • I used paagu vellam(jaggery) for color and taste. You can use regular jaggery too.
  • If you are planning to store for 2 days then use rice flour paste instead of coconut. Do not add more rice flour , it will change the taste of the pachadi.
  • The ultimate combination is with curd rice, try once and see and am sure you will thank me for it.
  • Choose a mango that is slightly ripe, which is apt for this pachadi. The color of the pachadi totally depends on the amount of turmeric powder and the jaggery variety.
