Fajeto

Fajeto/ Mango kadhi

This is authentic Gujarati dish. We made this specially during mango season. This can be made from left over mango liquid we get from washing up of mango skin and stone while making aam ras.

You can also use mango pulp and mix it with water.

For tempering / tadka:
Mustard seeds: 1/2 tea spoon
Cloves: 2-3
Curry leaves: handful
Asafoetida: 1/4 tea spoon

Preparation:
Mix pulp and water together. Add Chili and ginger paste to it.

Mix mango pulp with yogurt mix and add salt, red chili, turmeric and heat it on low flame.
While the mixture boils, prepare for tempering.

Add 1 table spoon of oil in small round vessel. Add mustard seeds and clove. Let it splutter. Add curry leaves and finally asafoetida.
Add the tempering to Fajeto.
