Ingredients
Spices and Flavorings
- 1/2 tsp Fennel Seeds
- 1/4 tsp Nigella Seeds kalonji
- 1/8 tsp Asafoetida
- 1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds
- 1/2 tsp Mustard Seeds
- 1/4 tsp Fenugreek Leaves kasoori methi, dried
- 1/4 tsp Turmeric Powder
- 1 tsp Chili Powder red
- 1/4 tsp Garam Masala
- 1 tbsp Coriander Powder
- 1/4 tsp Salt or to taste
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a broad non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the fennel seeds, nigella seeds, asafoetida, cumin seeds, mustard seeds, and dried fenugreek leaves. Sauté for a few seconds until fragrant.
- Add the diced raw mango to the pan. Mix well and cook for 2 minutes, stirring continuously, until slightly softened.
- Add the water, coriander powder, red chili powder, turmeric powder, sugar, and salt. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mango is tender and the flavors have melded. Adding a touch of water helps create a light sauce and prevents the spices from burning.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the garam masala. This preserves the delicate aroma of the garam masala.
- Allow the launji to cool completely. This allows the flavors to deepen and mature.
- Once cooled, transfer the launji to an airtight container and refrigerate. It can be stored for up to 4 days.
- Serve the sweet and spicy green mango launji as a condiment with roti, puri, or stuffed paratha.
