Mango Sambar Recipe – Raw Mango Recipes

Raw mango sambar
Last year I wanted to start my mango recipes with this yummy raw mango sambar. But I couldn’t. This year at least let this sambar be my first mango recipe as its my most favorite. I learnt this recipe from my MIL. My mom & MIL never fails to make this sambar during mango season.We call it as “Manga sambar” in Tamil. My Mom makes mango sambar along with drumstick. So its more like drumstick mango sambar. Her recipe is Tirunelveli based version. I will try to make a separate post for that. This is my MIL’s version which is very easy to make without any grinding job. Its like my basic onion sambar recipe but there are slight variations in the quantity of tamarind and spices as we use sour raw mango here. Whenever my MIL make this sambar, she reserves 2 big mango pieces for meLove Struck as I love to eat those soft,spicy and juicy cooked mangoes the mostDrooling.When i was making this sambar, all these nostalgic memories were running behind my mind :)..Ok. Lets see how to prepare this yummy raw mango sambar recipe !

Note
Adjust the quantity of tamarind and sambar powder according to the sourness of mango.
You can also use toor dal & moong dal in equal quantity to make this sambar.
If you feel the mango is over cooked, remove the pieces after the sambar is done. Add the pieces just before serving so that mango will retain its shape while serving.
Enjoy this yummy mango sambar for your lunch ! I had with rice & broad beans poriyal Happy
