Ingredients
1 large mango
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1 tbsp thinly sliced shallots
2 small thai green chilies
1 tbsp thinly chopped ginger
1.5 cups yogurt
Salt to taste
For the garnish
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
1/4 tsp cumin seeds
1/4 tsp fenugreek seeds
1 tbsp diced shallots
2 dry red chilies
1 tsp oil
a few curry leaves
Method
- Skin and dice the mango into very small pieces.
- In a pan, place the mango pieces, shallots, slit green chilies, ginger, turmeric powder and salt, and pour just enough water to cover the ingredients.
- Cook covered till the water is boiling, remove the cover and cook it on medium heat till the mango pieces are really soft, and most of the water is gone.
- Mash the mango pieces with the back of a heavy wooden spoon to break up the pieces.
- Reduce the heat to the lowest flame, and pour the yogurt into the saucepan.
- Stir well to combine the mashed mango pieces with the yogurt. Keep stirring till the gravy is heated through, don’t let it boil. Remove from the heat.
- In a small frying pan, heat oil and add the mustard seeds. When they start to splutter, add the cumin and fenugreek seeds and fry for a few seconds. Add the shallots, curry leaves and red chilies and fry till the shallots are brown.
- Pour this over the prepared mango-yogurt gravy and mix well.
- Serve with rice or chapati.
