Manga tokku

When I was staying at home, I never quite cared for this chutney (or maybe it was never served to me), but somewhere along the line, I developed a taste for it and have bought numerous bottles of it. This was the first time I dared try it out myself, and it turned out better than the store bought versions. I know I am not going to buy it any more.

Mango grated - 1 cup
Turmeric powder- a pinch
Chilli powder - 3 tsp (more if you like it hot)
Salt -2 tsp (or to taste)
Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
Hing -1/4 tsp
Fenugreek powder(dry roasted and powdered) - 1/2 tsp
Cooking oil- 1 tbsp

Heat oil. Add mustard seeds and hing. When the mustard seeds start spluttering add the grated mango, and cook on low heat for 3-4 minutes.
Add red chilli powder, turmeric powder and salt, and cook till the oil starts to separate. Add the fenugreek powder, mix well and cook for a minute or two.

Can be stored in the fridge for upto two weeks. Best with dosas.
