Raw Green Mangoes in Season

The sour stuff is back and pickle time is here, south Asian people just love the raw mango! Either pickles, chutney's or relishes the use of the raw mango is endless even Mango Curry, which know doubt my old man will be cooking up in the next few weeks is simply amazing!

Here's a few ideas for the Raw Green Mango, relishes that compliment various dishes throughout as well as for the barbecue season.

 Mango & Onion Relish Typically Gujarati style relish, sliced mangoes, sliced red onions, cumin seeds, chilli powder, a little jaggary and a pinch of salt are mixed together well and left to marinate in the fridge for a few hours.


Mango & Chilli Salad
Diced mangoes, red onions, green bell peppers, tomatoes, grated carrots, fresh coriander, chilli, lemon juice, pinch of ground cumin and salt. Again mixed together well, before allowing to chill for a few hours.
