Appe huli (Raw Mango Rasam)

Yes!! It's mango season now !! My friend Poornima got few raw mangoes from her hometown. The week was spent experimenting  mango based recipes.

 I am posting a very popular raw mango recipe called 'Appe huLi'  from Malenaadu region of Karnataka. It is  a simple recipe with basic ingredients as listed under. But it is extremely delightful as an accompaniment with rice or as a drink
