How to make Manga Rasam Recipe - Raw Mango Rasam Recipe
To begin making the Mango Rasam Recipe, first prep the fruit. Wash the mango, slice it and place it in a pressure cooker along with 1 cup of water.
You can choose to retain or remove the peels, as per your convenience. Pressure cook the mango until you hear one whistle and turn off the heat.
When the pressure releases and the mango has cooled, squeeze the pulp out and discard the stone and peels. Strain this pulp through sieve to remove the excess fibre. You will be left with a silky smooth mango puree.
Next, add the ghee in a saucepan. When it gets slightly warm, add mustard, cumin and asafoetida and gently toss for a couple of minutes. Then, add the garlic and fry till it turns slightly brown. Add the curry leaves and dry red chilli next and fry again.
Once roasted, add black pepper powder, turmeric powder, chilli powder, cumin powder, coriander powder along with the mango pulp and mix well.
At this stage you can add an additional cup of water if the Mango Rasam feels too thick. Check the salt and spice levels after you have added water and adjust to suit your taste.
Squeeze in the lemon juice and bring the Mango Rasam to a brisk boil for about 5 minutes and turn off the heat.
Stir in the chopped coriander leaves and serve.
