• 2 Cups Green Mango (peeled and grated)
• 1 Cup Jaggery
• 1/2 cup Dry coconut powder
• 1 Tbsp (adjust according to your taste) Red chili powder

Green Mango chutney is a tangy, sweet and spicy chutney. Its goes well with hot Chapatis or rice, it can also be served with dosa and idlis.

This is my favorite chutney of all. I can literally eat it whole day :D, especially when my mom makes it. I tried so many times to get that taste and finally after 3 years of trying, mine got a little close to her authentic chutney. Hope you all will also like it.

Method :

• In a bowl mix grated mango, jaggery, salt and red chili powder.

• In a tadka pan (small pan) add oil and when its hot add methi seeds and fry till golden brown. Add these methi seeds to mango, jaggery mixture. Keep it for at least half an hour.
• Heat up the remaining oil and add mustard seeds, when it starts crackling add hing and curry leaves and switch off the flame. Keep this aside.
• Grind mango mixture along with dry coconut powder coarsely without adding water. Transfer it to a serving bowl and add tadka on top.

Note :

• Soaking helps in releasing water from mango which in turn helps in grinding.
• You can skip adding tadka, instead add hing directly to the mango mixture while grinding.
• Quantity of Jaggery depends on tanginess of mango, if its not too tangy then reduce the quantity of jaggery.
