RAW MANGO PACHADI RECIPE

Raw mango pachadi, is a traditional sweet made on Tamil new year day in our house. Amma makes it quite often during mango season too. During my childhood i have never tasted this raw mango pachadi as i am a big hater of jaggery based sweets. Now it has totally changed. I have updated my mango pachadi recipe with video. Check out my ripe mango pachadi too. Also check my full collection of Tamil new year recipes.

  • In a pressure cooker put this mango slices and cook for 2 whistles. Do not add any water to the mangoes while cooking.
  • The Mangoes will be soft yet will not be mushy. Keep this aside.
  • Melt the jaggery in a pan by adding 1/2 cup of water to it.
  • Let the jaggery melts.
  • Filter it and allow it to boil for 5 mins.
  • Transfer it back to the pan.
  • Boil for a minute.
  • Add the cooked mango to that. 
  • Mash it slightly here and there.
  • Boil for a minute. 
  • Temper the mustard seeds and red chilli and add to the pachadi.
  • You can add some dried neem flowers too while tempering.
  • Mix well. 
  • Transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy it .
  • We had for our dessert.
  • In my mom’s place they have it as an accompaniment for curd rice.

Notes:

  1. AFTER MAKING IF YOU STILL FEEL IT IS NOT VERY SWEET,DON’T WORRY JUST ADD A TBLSP OF SUGAR TO IT AND MIX WELL.
  2. IF THE CONSISTENCY IS WATERY, JUST ADD A TSP OF RICE FLOUR WITH A TBLSP OF WATER AND BRING A BOIL.
  3. COLOUR OF THE RAW MANGO PACHADI DEPENDS ON THE JAGGERY.
