Mavinakai Gojju (Raw Mango sweet and sour)


Mango Gojju, everyone's favorite because of the taste, sweet and sour.

Very easy to make it,

All you need is, 1 medium sized raw mango, Jaggery or Sugar, mustard seeds, 1/4 teaspoons, 1/4 teaspoons of cumin seeds, curry leaves few, finely chopped coriander leaves chopped for garnish.(optional)
