The hot summer can be bearable only because of watermelon and mangoes. It’s mango season in India, Back in my city, we could see mangoes occupies a predominant place almost everywhere. Most of the families busy in preserving them for the rest of the year, in the form of pickles or sun drying them.

In summer, mangoes are the important ingredient, in all our dishes. We throw them in sambar, Ku ham bus, make side dishes like Mango Pachadi, mango salad. We also loved to have them as a snack. We used to cut them into strips, drizzle salt and chili powder over it. Yummy, You should not miss this by tasting at least once.

This mango chutney is also one such recipe to incorporate mangoes into chutney recipe. Here we do not get Indian mangoes, So I use to go with frozen packages which are available in our local Indian Stores. Though it cannot be compared with fresh mangoes, but I’m quite Ok with it.

How to Make mango chutney:

1. Cut raw mango. Measure and take 1 cup.

Hint: (a)Red chilies can be adjusted to everyone’s preference. My family opts for spicier chutney, so I went with 4 red chilies. (b)If you have ground asafoetida you can use it, but I feel the solid version has longer shelf life and retains its flavor longer time.

2. Dry roast the ingredients separately, by starting with Bengal gram. In medium flame, dry roast Bengal gram until it becomes golden brown, transfer them to a plate. Again start dry roasting urad dal until they also turn golden brown. Add few drops of oil and roast asafoetida and red chilies together.

Hint: Bengal gram and Urad dal are different in its thickness, and accordingly got different cooking time. So we are roasting them separately.

3. Allow all the ingredients to cooled down to the room temperature. Once it is cooled down, transfer them to the mixer grinder. Add salt and grind it until they are smooth in texture.
4. Seasoning is optional. For seasoning. Heat pan, add a teaspoon of cooking oil followed by mustard seeds and urad dal. Allow mustard seeds to splutter. Add curry leaves, let the curry leaves sizzles in the oil for few seconds. Pour the seasoning over the chutney. Serve immediately.
