Mango Rice Recipe

Mangoes originated in East India, Burma and the Andaman Islands bordering the Bay of Bengal. Around the 5th century B.C., Mango is called Mangifera indica and is known as 'king of fruit' throughout the world.The Mango tree plays a sacred role in India; it is a symbol of love and some believe that the Mango tree can grant wishes. In India, Mangoes are found in plenty during the summer season. We can make a variety of food using mango and 'Mango Rice' is one such food. I use a lot of chillies to this recipe as mango will give this food a sourness/sweetness.

Ingredients:

1tsp channa dal
chopped ginger optional
1 bunch coriander leaves
1 pinch cumin
4 cup fresh cooked rice
1 number grated raw mango
6 number green chillies

4 tsp oil
3 piece red chilli whole
