    Last year once I tasted mango dal in an Andhra restaurant. The same day as I tasted the Carrot sambar with garlic. I even tried once earlier, but could not get it in right taste.

    Made again couple of days back as it is mango season. Though these days raw mangoes are available 365 days a year here, the mangoes we get in the season are the best.

    I used combination of dal this time and totally loved the texture, taste and flavor. So close to what I had at the restaurant, yummiest! I partially adapted from here to have an idea about the authentic flavor.

    Made with more dal but it was too much in quantity, so I am writing the recipe with reduced dal quantity alone.

    Actually I loved this so much that I had it as such and skipped my rice 😉. Definitely making this often as this is my recent favorite mango recipe, as well as dal recipe.

    Notes

    • Adding mango with skin gives more flavour.
    • Adjust spice according to the tanginess to balance it.
