Ingredients
Raw Mango — 1 kg
Spicy red chili powder — 3 tbsp
Jaggery —- 1 1/2 tbsp
Salt —- 1 tbsp
Turmeric powder — 1/2 tsp
Mustard seeds — 1 tsp
Asafetida — 1/2 tsp
Fenugreek powder 1 tsp
Sesame oil —7-8 tbsp.
Method
Buy mango that are firm and that you think will be sour in taste( smell the mango to find if it’s sour). Wash, remove the skin and grate the mango. Heat oil in a heavy deep pan. Add the mustard seeds. Once the seeds crackle, add the turmeric powder and asafetida. Give it a stir and added the grated mango and chili powder. Stir the mango well. Close and cook for two minutes in low heat. Now add salt and jaggery. Mix well, cover and cook in low heat for 7-8 minutes and keep stirring in between. Put off the heat once you see the oil oozing out. Add the fenugreek powder and mix it well. Cover and allow the thokku to cool down. Once the thokku is cooled, store it in an airtight bottle. Enjoy the Maanga Thokku.
