Raw Mango Rice

மாங்காய் சாதம் – Raw Mango Rice

Raw Mango Rice called as mangai satham is one of the seasonal variety rice which is made with raw grated mango along with simple tempering ingredients. It is an easy to prepare and quick time recipe. One of my friend brought this mangai sadam as lunch some days during my college days and I liked it very much. I’m a big fan of her mom’s mango rice.
