ADA MANGAI KOOTAN (DRY MANGO CURRY)


Ada mangai kootan or curry is  made with dried mango, tamarind pulp and sambar powder or roasted masala mentioned in the recipe.  It is  served as a main dish like sambar along with rice.

Ada manga means spiced mango dried in hot sun.    We can make pickle also out of this but the taste will be different. My grandmother used to make this and keep in the bharani.  During the rainy season, she used to make this curry and serve along with hot rice, roasted papad.  We really used to enjoy this.   The ada mangai will remain for about year or two.  So during off season also, you can enjoy.

now the mango season is still on, and the scorching heat, it is time to make this dry mangoes and keep stored for the use in the next year.  the more it becomes old, the more tastier it is. It tastes awesome.



Let us look at the recipe now:
