Ripe mango curry




There is a interesting story behind this. Saurabh was surfing channels and he started shouting "Arati Arati". I came running and he said - "look this guy is cooking ripe mango". I said : Raw mango". He said "no ripe mango ".
It is highly unlikely that saurabh notices a cookery show on tv and I dunno if such an event will happen again in this millennium. So well the cook made the dish and he himself was loving it so much and I wonder if he was acting or not but he sure was getting hysterical. Well, when I made it, I couldn't help freaking out after tasting it. Infact I ate away more than half of it before saurabh could come back from work.

Ingredients:
1) Ripe mangoes -the bigger the better
2) Sesame seeds (til) (1-2 spoons)
3) Curry leaves
4) Fresh ground coconut (fistful)
5) green chillies
6) jeera
7) Yoghurt
8) Red chillies
9) Mustard seeds

1) Peel mangoes
2) Cut the mangoes in two ways - one in slices and one minced.
3) Take ingredients (2-6) and grind them in the mixie.
4) In a pan add the ground paste from 3 and add the minced mangoes. Let it cook.
5) After a while add yoghurt to it.
6) Now add the big slices of mangoes and cover it for some time so that the slices become soft with steam.
7) In another pan add oil - put red chillies and mustard seed and curry leaves.
8) Mix it with 6 and yeah the tangy ripe mango curry is ready to be served.
Yes it was really good.
