Manga Pulissery / Mango Pulissery

Mango pulissery is actually made with ripe mango, but myself and my hubby liked it more when it was only slightly ripe. This retained bit sour taste too, so it was basically sweet and sour which gave it a real great taste.

First Step Ingredients
------------------------
Semi ripe mango -2
Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
Chilli powder - 1/2 tsp
Curry leaves - 1 spring
Salt - as required

Grind
--------
Coconut - 1 cup
Green chilly - 4
Curry leaves - 1 spring
Cumin seeds - 1/2 tsp
Ginger - 1/2 inch (a very small piece)
Turmeric powder  - 1/4 tsp

Last Step Ingredients
---------------------------
 Curd - 2 cups
          Seasoning
           ------------
           Oil
           Mustard seeds- 1 tsp
           Red Chilly - 3
           Fenugreek seeds - 1/4 tsp
           Cumin seeds - 1/4 tsp
           Curry leaves - 1 spring

Process
------------


1) Put all the ingredients listed under "First Step Ingredients" in a pan and boil it by closing the lid for about 8 mins. In between open the lid and check if the mangoes have boiled in such a way that at least some of them can be mashed. Once it turns like that, mash some.
2) Now add the ground mixture containing all the ingredients listed under "Grind".
3) After mixing it well just boil it for 2 min. Don't close the pan with the lid. A slight bubble comes (approx 2 min) and its time to switch off the stove.
4) Now make sure the curry is not very hot and then add the curd, basically if the curry is hot the curd will easily cuddle up which shouldn't happen.
5) Now as final step, do the seasoning with the ingredients listed under "Seasoning".

Note: You can use semi ripe mangoes or even ripe mangoes. When using ripe mangoes there is a bit sweet taste which I don't like, so I always go for semi-ripe mangoes or even raw mangoes as it will be sour.
