MANGO KATLI, MANGO PAK

Mango is a delicious fruit and we had the same in our backyard abundantly.  During mango season, all the dishes at home will be mango based.

My children loves to eat mango.  They also like mango milk shake.  During the season, I used to make mango pulp and keep it in fridge.  Whenever they feel like drinking mango milk shake, they used to mix the pulp and milk and enjoy.

I tried the combination of mango pulp, milk and dry fruits to make this sweet dish and came out well and enjoyed by everyone.   This mango katli is a delicious sweet dish one can enjoy it during the season.
