[tscii]When ever we have guests for vegetarian lunch, we either make this mango patchadi, puli inji or brinjal kasundi.
To day I am posting this simple mango patchadi.
Some people like to use brown sugar, I like to use chillie powder and normal sugar.
MANGO PACHADI
Ingredients:
300 grms raw ripe mango pieces
100 grms sugar ( more if you like sweet)
1 heaped tsp chillie powder
½ tsp mustard seeds
1 sprig curry leaves
2 tsp oil
Salt a little.
Method:
Choose a semi ripe mango, skin the mango and chop the pulp.
In a wok add the oil, when it splutters, add in the curry leaves.
Now add in the chopped plup and stir nicely.
Add little water and let it cook over medium heat.
Keep stirring off and on till they turn plupy.
Now add in the chillie powder, the sugar and salt.
Continue cooking over medium heat till they come
To a jam like consistency. Taste for sugar and salt.
Remove and serve as a side dish or jam.

[tscii]Here goes my first recipe. Back at Bangalore , my neighbor used to make this lovely kolambu called as Bassaru . Apparently mom learned this dish from her and its one of the favourites in our house since then.
Bassaru
The key ingredient for this recipe is the Greens Broth.
Method to prepare the Greens broth
1.Take greens such as siru keerai , venthaya keerai and palak and ½ a cup of sambhar paruppu.
2. Pressure cook the above with 4 cups of water. Do not over cook
3. Strain the water when its is done . The water that we strained is secret ingedrient ( Greens broth )
PS: Well if u are wondering what to do with the greens and paruppu jus make a poriyal out of it
Remaining ingredients
Tomato 2
Onion 1
Corainder seeds- 2 tbsp
Cumin seeds 1 tbsp
Pepper corns 6
Garlic pods 6
Red Chillies 5
Scrapped coconut ½ cup
Tamarind lemon size
Kadugu , ulutham paruppa and curry leaves for the thalippu.
Salt to taste.
Method.
1. Dry roast the red chillies , cumin seeds , coriander seeds , pepper corns, coconut scrapping and keep aside
2. Add little oil and fry the onions , tomatoes and garlic.
3. Grind 1 and 2 and make a smooth paste
4. Heat 2 drops of oil in a kadai and turn in the grinded paste and tamarind pulp.
5. Add Green Broth at this stage and salt and bring the kolambu to boil. Vary the amount of greens broth for thick and thin version of the kolambhu .
6. Garnish the kolambhu with kadugu , ulutham paruppu and karuvepillai thalippu.
Serve Bassaru with rice , dosa or Ragi kali.
Try it and do give me ur feedbacks. I hope you guys will love it
Luv,
NithiShri

Hey guys i forgot to mention that Bassuru can also be done with Radish broth, Beans broth etc
Just pressure cook radish or beans with sambhar paruppu . and use this strained water as a variation for Greens Broth .
:goodidea: right ;)
