Raw Mango Spicy Chutney

Raw mango chutney or mavinakai heendi as we call locally in South Canara, Karnataka is a seasonal delight. Mango season is incomplete without this spicy and tangy chutney. At my home we prepare most of the delicacy using mangoes during the mango season. It can be served with idli, dosa, roti or hot rice. I prefer with hot rice and coconut oil. It’s a very simple to prepare recipe and yummy to taste.
