Ingredients
 

  • 500 grm grated mango
  • 500 grm gud - jaggery
  • 2 tbsp ghee
  • 3-4 cloves
  • 2-3 green cardamoms
  • 1 inch cinnamon
  • ½ tsp turmeric powder
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 tsp roasted cumin powder
  • 2 tbsp Kashmiri red chilli powder

Instructions

  • Take 2 large Rajapuri raw mangoes and grate them using a coarse grater. You should get about 3 cups (approximately 500 grams) of grated mango.
  • Now, in a pressure cooker, add 2 tbsp ghee, 2 cardamoms, 1-inch cinnamon stick, and 3–4 cloves. Sauté for a few seconds. Then add ½ tsp turmeric powder and mix well.
  • Add the grated mango and sauté it for 2–3 minutes.
  • Now add 500 grams or 3 cups jaggery to the cooker and mix well. Cook on a slow flame until the jaggery melts completely and blends well with the mango.
  • When the mango-jaggery mixture starts boiling, cover the lid and pressure cook on high flame for only 1 whistle.
  • Once the pressure releases naturally, open the lid. The mango should be properly cooked, transparent, and the mixture should become thick with a one-string consistency.
  • Allow the mixture to cool down slightly, then add 1 tsp roasted cumin powder and 2 tbsp Kashmiri red chilli powder. Mix well.
  • Gud Keri no Chundo is ready. Store it in a sterilized, airtight glass jar. It stays good for up to 1 year in the refrigerator.
  • Serve the keri no chundo with thepla, puri, or gathiya.

Notes

  • Remove the skin of the raw mangoes, as it is hard and does not soften easily in the chutney.
  • Grate the raw mangoes using a big-hole grater.
  • The proportion of sweetness should be equal to the quantity of grated raw mango.
  • Use Kolhapuri gud (jaggery) for the pickle. Do not use desi gud.
  • When the mixture starts boiling, cover it with a lid.
  • Cook on high flame until 1 whistle only.
  • When the grated mango becomes transparent and the sugar syrup reaches a one-string consistency, it is perfectly cooked.
  • Store the Kachi Keri Chundo in a sterilized glass bottle. It stays good for up to 1 year in the refrigerator.
