Kacha Aamaer(Green Mango) Chatni

Ingredients:

1 green mango

½ tsp mustard seeds

1 dry red chilli

½ tsp panch phoron powder

A pinch of turmeric powder

1/3 cup sugar or more if needed

Oil

A pinch of salt

Procedure:

Wash and roughly peel the green mangoes. You don’t have to take out the peel very smoothly. Chop them up in small pieces. Heat Oil in Frying Pan. Add mustard seeds and dry red chilli. As soon as the mustard seeds start sputtering, add the chopped mangoes
Add a pinch of turmeric powder and sauté the mangoes. The mangoes will turn a nice yellow because of the turmeric and will also soften a little. Add salt and about 1 cup water. Water should be enough to cook the mangoes. The chatni should be thick and so add water moderately. Mix and cover and cook till mangoes are done. With the spatula check to see if the mangoes are cooked to softness.
Add sugar according to your desired level of sweetness. Cook and reduce the water till you get a thick consistency. Sprinkle panch phoron powder on the chatni. Let it cool and then serve.
