Prep Time – 5 Mins

Cooking Time – 10 Mins

Ingredients

Mango – 1 cup peeled and chopped

Jaggery (coarse dark brown sugar) – 5 pieces (medium size 2 inch pieces)

Mustard – ½ teaspoon

Urad dal – ½ teaspoon

Curry Leaves – 1 sprig

Dry red chilli – 2

Salt – per taste

Water – 1 cup

Oil – 1 tea spoon

Procedure

STEP 1: In a microwave safe bowl add ½ cup water and jaggery and microwave for 3 minutes. The jaggery will melt in this process. Filter the jaggery syrup to remove the impurities using a fine sieve mesh.

STEP 2: Heat oil in a pan, add mustard and let it splutter. Add urad dal and fry till golden brown. Add curry leaves and broken dry red chilli.

STEP 3: Add chopped mangoes, required salt and ½ cup water. Mix well, cover and cook for 5 minutes.

STEP 4: Once the mango pieces are cooked add the jaggery syrup and cook for 5 more minutes.

TIP: This pachadi has a sweet, tangy and salty flavour, so it can be served with any rice or have it just like that (if you can wait for the rice to get cooked);-)
