It would have been few years since I made Mango rice. Since mango season has started, I thought I should make it. And bought a couple of raw mangoes when I went to little Indian market with Jeyashri. Today I made and had it for lunch at last! This one is very simple recipe and its an easy lunch box idea as well. Just had it with mom’s home made vadams. Just the grating part. Otherwise, within 10 minutes the rice is ready! I had the recipe in a recipe book by Ramani Chandran called “Rani samayal.”
Ingredients
| Raw mango | 1 |
| Turmeric | 1/8 tsp |
| Salt | As needed |
| Rice | 1 cup (un cooked) |
To temper
| Sesame oil | 2 tblsp |
| Mustard | 1 tsp |
| Urad dal | 2 tsp |
| Channa dal | 2 tsp |
| Peanuts | 1 tblsp |
| Asafoetida | 1/8 tsp |
| Red Chillies | 5 |
| Green Chillies | 5 |
| Curry leaves | 1 sprig |
Method

The rice is so flavourful and goes well with any papad/ vadaams or simple poriyals !

July 9, 2014 at 1:43 pmA Small Tip : Adding small amount of Vendhaya Podi(but b careful, wen we add t excess it ll produce bitter taste) ll make dis dish more flavored ….

January 21, 2016 at 8:59 amI've never even heard of mango rice, but I'm so excited to try these this summer! 🙂
I wonder these would taste so good with one of those masala gravies…like the butter chicken gravy but without chicken in it because you're a vegetarian 🙂
