- ¾ cup water divided
- ½ teaspoon kashmiri chilli powder
- A pinch of turmeric powder
- ¼ cup jaggery
- ½ tablespoon sugar
- A pinch of chat masala
Heat oil in a pan over medium - high heat and add panch phoron mix.
2 teaspoons mustard oil, 1 teaspoon panch phoron mix
Once they crackle add asafoetida and saute for 10 seconds. Add mango wedges and cook for 4-5 minutes until mangoes become a bit soft. Stir occasionally.
⅛ teaspoon asafoetida powder, 1 cup green raw mangoes
Add water and when it starts boiling, add salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder. Cover the pan and cook until mangoes are half cooked, for about 5 minutes.
¼ teaspoon salt, ¾ cup water, ½ teaspoon kashmiri chilli powder, A pinch of turmeric powder
Add jaggery, sugar, chat masala and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Take care not to over cook the mangoes as they should not get mushy. Mangoes must be cooked but should still have a bite to them.
¼ cup jaggery, ½ tablespoon sugar, A pinch of chat masala
Turn off the heat and mango chutney is ready. Best served at room temperature or chilled with Roti or Poori.
- Use sour mangoes for best results. Instead of discarding the pit, you can add it to the chutney while cooking. Some people love sucking on the pit, or you can discard it later.
- Panch phoron is a mix of 5 spices - mustard seeds(rai), cumin seeds (jeera), fennel seeds (saunf), nigella seeds (kalonji) & fenugreek seeds (methi). If you don’t have this, use ⅛ teaspoon of each.
- Add jaggery & sugar only after the mangoes are half cooked or the mangoes will not cook properly.
- Stays fresh for up to 3 weeks when refrigerated.
