Mango Salad
We take our mangoes seriously…That’s why we have an infinite number of ways to eat them. Lassis pickles, chutneys,fruit salads , mousses, jams, jellies…endless list. A favorite among many - a sweet-tart mango curry –where small whole mangos were peeled and cooked, seeds included, in tamarind - jaggery gravy. I have altered this recipe, using chopped semi ripe mango, and a light tamarind-jaggery dressing.
