These past few days after i've resolved to cook dinners at home and out of respect for my body not just munch and gulp the street food i love so much, as dinner.
And so starts the journey of whipping up something nice almost every evening with my awesome roomies, and since we are from diverse regional backgrounds, i get to discover wonderful recipes like this one:
WHAT YOU NEED:
- Raw mango
- Cooking oil
- Mustard seeds
- Sugar n Salt
- Turmeric powder
- Red chilli powder
- An Awesome roommate that gushes with pride and encouragement when you try anything new :)
NOW WHAT TO DO WITH THESE
- Pretend that you are a masterchef contestant to summon the confidence.
- Cut up the raw mango into small pieces as shown in the picture.
- Heat the cooking oil (about 2 teaspoons) and add mustard seeds.
- They must make a crackling sound. If they don't, wait and egg them on until they do.
- Add your superbly cut raw mango to the mix. Expect more crackling sound
- Stir, stir, stir.
- Add a spoonful of sugar. The crystals look beautiful on top before they melt.
- Stir a bit and turn off the flame.
