Mango Rasayana

Mango Rasayana is the most popular and easiest Mangalorean dish. Some like rasayana with poori, some with neer dosa and some like to have chilled as payasam. My hubby who spent his childhood in Pune like mango rasayana with poori….and my little one is a carbon copy of his appa, but I like chilled rasayana after dinner or lunch as a payasam; so how can I forget to prepare mango rasayana in mango season. The recipe may differ from person to person; this is how my mom uses to prepare …..So here is the recipe

Take the pulp of mango in a bowl add jageery powder and cardamom powder mix well keep aside

To the pulp add coconut milk and mix well; keep in fridge to chill

Coconut milk: - Take fresh grated coconut in mixer and a glass of water run mixer; now strain coconut mixture and you will get thick coconut milk

Add jaggery as per your family taste; make sure if the mangoes are sweet then add less jaggery.

Take the pulp of mango with your hand; don’t run in mixer.
