Aambe Saglen

Raw mangoes can be used extensively in cooking. One of our family friends suggested this Aambe Saglen that resembles Bhenda Saglen to a great extent but tastes different. The sweet and sour taste of mangoes blends well with the spiced masala and gives a unique pleasure of eating. Kids will love this.

Ingredients:
Semi ripe Mangoes – 200Gms sliced/cut into wedges
Coconut - 1 Cup grated
Coriander Seeds - 2 tsp
Urad Daal - 1 Tsp
Red Chillies - 4
Tamarind - Cherry size ball
Jaggery Powder - 1 Tsp
Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
Oil - 2 Tsp
Salt - To taste

Method:
Boil the mango wedges with a cup of water, little salt and a pinch of tamarind till almost cooked.
Roast the coriander seeds, urad daal and red chillies separately with little oil.
Grind together, roasted spices, grated coconut and Tamarind to a coarse paste.
Heat oil in a kadai. Add mustard seeds and allow them to splutter.
Add the ground masala paste, powdered jaggery and salt to taste. Fry well till the masala thickens and the raw smell disappears.
Now add the cooked mango along with the water and simmer till the masala thickens and infiltrates the mango pieces.
Serve with rice and daalithoi or with chapathis.
