Curried Mango

1. 1

   Prepare a small pot of water and place on open stove.

2. 2

   Cut up the mangoes into pieces and discard the seeds.

3. 3

   Once water is boiling, place the mango pieces into the pot and boil for 20 minutes or so.

4. 4

   This will soften the fruit a tad and remove some of the acidity as well.

5. 5

   Remove the mangoes from the water and keep them to the side.

6. 6

   In a small bowl, put the biriyani seasoning and curry and just a enough water to make a paste equivalent to the consistency of toothpaste.

7. 7

   Place to the side.

8. 8

   On medium fire, heat up the oil in a saucepan.

9. 9

   Add the onion and garlic.

10. 10

    Saute just till soft.

11. 11

    Add the seasoning paste and saute for around 2 minutes.

12. 12

    Add the pieces of mangoes and mix well to be sure that they are well covered by seasoning and oil.

13. 13

    For extra spice you can add a little hot pepper sauce.

14. 14

    You may also want to add a little sugar to sweeten it a tad.

15. 15

    Add a little water (perhaps a 1/4 cup) but not too much because as it cooks, the mango will release water of its own.

16. 16

    Cover and cook for approximately 10 minutes.

17. 17

    Serve as a side to any Indian dish or eat with pita bread or crackers as a snack.

18. 18

    Can be eaten hot or cold.
