RAW MANGO / AMIYA KI CHUTNEY

Today I am sharing a very quick and delicious Raw mango / Amiya Ki chutney that is made in a very traditional way. Unripe mango is charred before it is pounded .A delicious accompaniment to serve with roti ,rice or even smear on the bread slices. Each bite can be relished with a perfect balance of sour and spicy taste. This chutney has lot of memories associated with it as it is pounded using mortar and pestle or ammikal. It tastes awesome when made traditionally.

Ingredients for Raw Mango / Amiya Ki Chutney:

• Raw mango: Roast the mango on direct flame untill nicely charred and soft on all sides. Use unripe mango.

• Shallots: I have roasted shallots also on direct flame. It becomes soft very quickly.
