Mambazha Pulisheri

Here comes another Traditional cuisine of kerala. It’s a fantastic curry served in most Onam Sadya. The first time when I prepared this for my BF I wasn’t sure he may like it as he normally doesn’t like curries with sweet taste but this is exceptional for him, he just loved it and nowadays he asks me often to prepare mambazha pulishery. A unique recipe made out from ripe mangoes. This comprises both the sweet and spicy taste as we are using ripe mangoes and also the grounded coconut along with yogurt. This goes well when served with hot steamed white rice. People who love to have different types of food would definitely like this. Some people use to add the mango seeds into the curry as well, where in I prepared by just grinding the mangoes.
