कैरीचि चटणि/ಮಾವಿನ ಕಾಯಿ ಚಟ್ನಿ/Kairi chi Chutney

'Maavin Kaai' is kannada name for Green Mango.It is called 'Kairi' Marathi and HIndi.
This is my all time favorite chutney as it has sweet, bit spicy,tangy taste. It is a perfect combination with chapti,parathaetc.I love eating this with Uppit and Pohe too.Definitely give a try :)


Ingredients :

  1. Green Mango - 1
  2. Jaggery shredded - 1 cup (Use the one which is soft)
  3. Kashmiri Red chilli Powder - 5 tea spoons.Vary the amount according to the type of chilly poweder you are using.
  4. Salt to taste
  5. Roasted peanut powder - 1/2 cup
  6. For Tadka  - 3 teaspoon of Oil,1/2 teaspoon mustard and cumin seeds, 1 tea spoon of fenugreek seeds (Methi seeds), 1/4th tea spoon of hing and turmeric.

Steps :

  • Peel the mango and make the pieces of around 1 inch.
  • To that ,add jaggery,salt,Red chilli powder
  • Grind well in the grinder and take out in a bowl
  • Add roasted peanut powder to it and mix well
  • Heat up oil, add mustard,cumin and fenugreek seeds.Once you are sure that they are fried well,put off the flame and add hing and turmeric powder.
  • Pour this tadka on the chutney
TIPS :
  • Adding fenugreek might seem bit weird but these crispy seeds ad a unique taste to this chutney.
Make sure that seeds are fried well. When you smell the aroma of fenugreek seed coming from oil, it means they are fried well.If they remain uncooked then they are the biggest spoilers here.At the same time, do not over fry too.

  • Add peanut powder separately this gives crunchy texture to chutney and you will feel the crunch while eating.Do not mix it with ingredients while grinding them.
  • If you like more hot taste, you can increase quantity of red chilli powder according to your wish
  • When refridgerated,remains good for months.
