Mamidikaya Rava Pulihora

During the summer season, I am obsessed with mangoes - both, raw and ripe and can never get tired of them. During the summer Amma used to make dal, Panna ,chutney, pickle ,pulihora with unripe mangoes -, mango icecream and mango juice ,aamras with golden yellow mangoes. Today, I’m sharing with you an unforgettable and my family favorite summer fare delicacy prepared from raw mangoes. It is simple, easy to make and tasty to eat.
