As you can see I am afflicted with Mango Mania. This happens every summer and continuing in this trend, today I am presenting the recipe for Mavinakayi Tambli, a raw mango-coconut-yogurt gravy from Karnataka.
This recipe for Mavinakayi Tambuli ticks all the boxes of a summer dish for me: it has mango and yogurt; it is easy to make (<15 mins); and needs nothing but rice to make for a complete meal. 🙂
If you love raw mangoes, try my recipes for Methamba, a sweet and tangy mango relish from Maharashtra; Kanda Kairi, a ridiculously easy to make onion and raw mango chutney from Maharashtra; and Mamidikaya Kobbari Pachadi, a simple coconut and mango chutney from Andhra Pradesh.
