Latha's Kitchen: Khatta Meetha Aam Chunda / Sweet and Sour Mango Chunda

Sunday, 5 May 2013

Ingredients

2 big Sized Raw Mangos (Grated)

½ tsp Turmeric powder

1 tsp Salt

1 ½ Cups Sugar (Quantity may differs, its depends upon the sourness of the mangoes)

1 tbsp Red chili powder

1 tbsp Roasted Cumin seed Powder

METHOD

1. Peel and grate the mangoes using bigger grater. Now add salt and turmeric, mix it well. And leave it for 15 – 20 minutes covered.

2. After 15 – 20 minutes add 2 tbsp sugar at a time and stir well. Repeat the same process till all the sugar get dissolves.

3. Now cook this mixture till it gets bubbles on top on medium flame. (Over cooking will crystallize the mixture).

4. Allow the mixture cool completely; as it cools sugar syrup will get thickened.

5. Finally add red chili powder and Roasted cumin seed powder. Mix well.

6. Enjoy this Sweet and Sour Mango Chunda with Chappati, paratha or phulka.

Note:

Store it in clean and dry Bottle. And you can store this up to a year.

Bigger sized grater will give you proper Chunda texture (Thread Consistency).

Instead of sugar we can use jaggery also.

Thanks and Regards,
