RAW MANGO & CORIANDER CHUTNEY

RAW MANGO & CORIANDER CHUTNEY

This is the mango season and the time to make a variety of pickles and chutneys using raw/green mangoes. Elsewhere in this blog, you will find recipes for Mamidikaya Menthi Pachadi from Andhra Pradesh, Raw Mango Chutney South Canara Style, and Maavinkayi Chitranna or Raw Mango Rice from Karnataka.

Today's recipe is from North India. It is for a chutney made with raw mangoes and coriander leaves which goes great with sandwiches, samosas and other such snacks.

I have adapted this from Raw Mango Coriander Chutney by the famous Chef, Harpal Singh Sokhi.

Ingredients:

• Raw Mango, cubes, 1/2 cup
• Coriander Leaves, 2 cups
• Green Chillies, 3
• Ginger, chopped, 1/2 " piece 
• Salt, to taste
• Black Salt, 1/2 tsp
• Chaat Masala, 1/2 tsp
• Lemon Juice, 1 tbsp 
• Water, as required

Method:-

Wash and peel the raw mango and cut into cubes
Remove the coriander leaves from their stems. Wash them well
In a mixer jar, grind together the raw mango, green chillies, ginger, coriander leaves, salt, black salt , chaat masala and lemon juice to a smooth paste, adding just the required amount of water 

Transfer the chutney to a serving bowl
Serve with sandwiches or samosas or chaat
