Ripe Mango Kadhi / Mambalam Mor kolambu. Mambazha Mor Kuzhambu is a delicious mango curry made from ripe mangoes simmered in a delicious coconut and yogurt based gravy. That one was Fajeto, a Gujarati style kadhi where ripe mango is ground to a puree and added to buttermilk thickened with chick pea flour. But this recipe keeps the whole mango slice intact and it absorbs the flavours of the curry so beautifully that I'd happily cast my vote for the Moar Kuzhambu over the Fajeto.

This is made by using ripe mango, curd and coconut. As this is mango season and normal mor kolambu lovers will like this exotic Dish. Fajeto (ripe mango kadhi) Mor kozhambu is a buttermilk based dish, somewhat like a south Indian kadhi, that is served over a bed of steamed rice with a curry on the side. When my mother in law first suggested mor kozhambu with mangoes, I was a tad bit skeptical about it.

The ideas of using sweet ripe mangoes in a savory curry like dish seemed quite incredible to me. Aamras Ki Kadhi is a traditional spicy and sweet Gujarati recipe, a classical preparation of sweet and sour mango juice combined together with few selected ingredients. Perfect for those summer afternoon lunch or serve with rice or roti for lunch pack for any hot day in a year. It is no more difficult to get ripe mango food products. So just whip up some sweet mango pulp with chick pea flour.
