Mango Onion Soup

Seems like the monsoons have hit South India and people are enjoying the first showers. Here is a hot and yummy soup with the last few mangoes available. As for us sweating it out in Dubai, we have it chilled.

Preparation time: 30-35 mins

Serves: 2

Ingredients:

Raw mango 1
Onion (ullipaya) ½
Cumin seeds 1 tsp
Chat masala (optional) 1 tsp
Salt to taste

 
Method:

Wash and peel the mango. Cut into cubes the mango and half onion.

Pressure cook to 4 whistles or boil until soft and mash able. Set aside to cool.

Dry roast and grind to a fine powder the cumin seeds.

Add the cooked mangoes, onion to the blender and blend thick.

Pour into a cooking pot/vessel, add around a cup of water, powdered cumin, pinch of chat masala (optional) and salt to taste and leave to boil for around 5 mins or until the soupy texture seeps in.

Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot or chilled with papads and chutney.

Welcome the rains while we continue enjoying our mango-filled summer here.
