Notes

Tips for Maangai Sadam Recipe

1. Use sour/tangy and raw mango only, ripe and sweet mango won't work for this recipe.
2. Adjust mango quantity as per tangy/sour taste preferred.
3. I used basmati rice, but any long grain rice or even leftover rice can be used for this raw mango rice recipe.
4. 1 tsp of jeera or a small piece of crushed ginger can be used in tempering, which lends more flavour to the dish.
5. I used both green and red chilli for tempering, you can use any one type of chilli too.
6. Sprinkle turmeric powder generously for bright colour and hing for flavour.
7. Roasted peanuts can be replaced with cashews for this maangai sadam recipe.
8. 1 small piece of jaggery can be added along with grated mango, which enhances the taste of the rice.
