Mango chunda is a preserve that is common to all Gujarati households. In every summer my mom make it this chundo. Theplas and mango chunda are great combination. This combination is a popular snack option for most Gujaratis even today.
Chunda is a judicious combination of grated mangoes and sugar, the quantum of sugar used determined by the sourness of mangoes. The traditional preparation of chunda is time consuming, the heat of sun being used to dissolve the sugar till the pickle reaches a clear syrupy consistency and the mango shreds are translucent.
But I have created an instant version of this very special recipe that tastes superb and is surprisingly easy to prepare. Sugar is added gradually so that it gets nearly dissolved in the juices of the grated mango.
The entire process is slow and requires continuous stirring and a lot of patience. After which the prepared chunda is poured into a heated pan and cooked for a very short time till its syrup is clear. This simple recipe will help you stock up a year's supply of mango chunda.
