Mamidikaya Pappu-Raw mango dal

 

Raw mango dal is one of the few delicious and easy dals which are prepared in Andhra. This dal has a very typical flavor because of the natural sourness of the mango and is complemented well when mixed with hot white rice with lots of ghee and some fry. Here goes the recipe of this simple and yummy dal. Mango dal is an eternal favorite in our house. I learnt making this dish from my mother-in-law. It’s a simple easy to make recipe and incorporates the flavors of a typical Andhra style dal recipe. Maximum flavor with minimum ingredients. That is the Andhra style mango dal for you.

Pressure cook for 2 whistles. Open the pressure cooker after 15 minutes. Add hot water and cook for a few minutes, if the dal is very thick.

2. After the pressure cooker is done, add the cooked mango pieces to the dal and mash it properly. Add some water to the mixture and let the mixture come to a boil on stove.Add red chilli powder and salt to it and mix well.

Notes

Add lots of garlic to the tadka, it will give very nice flavor to the dal.

Addition of green chilies are optional. I wanted it spicy so inserted 2 slited green chilies to this dal.
