Totapuri Mango Chutney

Hi friends

Today I am coming with yummy and delicious pachadi with Totapuri/Bangalora variety of raw mangoes. Totapuri is the variety with slight and sour in taste and fanciful color of green and yellow. Totapuri mangoes crop are found a lot Chittoor Dist. in Andhra Pradesh. Especially these type of mangoes contains rich in pulp and thick skin.  Having a lot of pulp in this type of mangoes, the pulp is converted into jam, juice, for bakery items and for ice creams also.

In my childhood days, my mother used to give me money when we were going to school. We used to buy these totapuri mango pieces at road side cyclewala. They taste fabulous with red mirchi powder and salt to mango pieces. We used to eat them like never eaten before.

Coming to today's recipe, at my in laws place in Chittoor dist, they prepare chutney, pulihora and even for mango pappu also with totapuri variety. Nice aromatic flavor when compared with other type of mangoes. they call this pachadi as mango vurupindi. They have rich source of vitamin A & C also.

I love cooking and fond of experimenting variety of dishes and share through my blog ie Kusumas Abhiruchi.

My Note

1. I used to keep the Mixy in whipper mode to retain tiny mango bits.
2. You can make it smooth pachadi and add a fist of tiny pieces of totapuri mango pieces and mix well.
3. It goes well with rice with dollop of ghee and don't forget to have papad.
4. Serve this pachdi as side dish with curd rice

 This is the best combination, you will surely agree once you taste it.
