Quick raw mango curry / keri nu shaak recipe – an easy and delicious curry using unripe green mangoes. This Gujarati sytle raw mango curry has raw mangoes flavored with simple everyday spices and jaggery. It is a mix of spicy, tangy and sweet flavors and can be made in minutes. It goes well as a side dish for rotis / chapathis or even rice. While one of my favorite fruits in summer is ripe mangoes, I also love tangy raw mangoes which go so well in savory dishes.
The recipe for this raw mango curry with jaggery is very easy. We need to first peel the green mangoes and cut them into cubes. The tangy mangoes are then cooked with simple spices which add spiciness to the curry. Finally jaggery is added to lend a touch of sweetness to the curry. The mangoes are soft and flavorful and perfect as a side dish for your meal at lunch or dinner.
