Raw mango pachadi recipe is a traditional sweet made on Tamil new year’s Day in our house. Amma makes it quite often during mango season too. During my childhood, I have never tasted this raw mango pachadi as I am a big hater of jaggery-based sweets. Now it has totally changed. I have updated my mango pachadi recipe with a video. Check out my ripe mango pachadi too. Also, check my full collection of Tamil new year recipes.
Raw mango pachadi
Peel the skin of the mango and cut it into thin slices.
In a pressure cooker put these mango slices and cook for 2 whistles. Do not add any water to the mangoes while cooking.
The Mangoes will be soft yet will not be mushy. Keep this aside.

- Melt the jaggery in a pan by adding 1/2 cup of water to it.
- Let the jaggery melts.

- Filter it and allow it to boil for 5 mins.
- Transfer it back to the pan.

- Boil for a minute.
- Add the cooked mango to that.

- Mash it slightly here and there.
- Boil for a minute.

- Temper the mustard seeds and red chilli and add to the pachadi.
- You can add some dried neem flowers too while tempering.

- Mix well.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy it.
- We had for our dessert.
- In my mom’s place, they have it as an accompaniment for curd rice.
Notes:
- After making if you still feel it is not very sweet, don’t worry just add a tbsp of sugar to it and mix well. If the consistency is watery, just add a tsp of rice flour with a tbsp of water and bring it to a boil. Color of the raw mango pachadi depends on the jaggery.
