Quite summery....Tangy yummy Rice..must do in Mango season..
No cooking involved ..just a matter of 10 min.Good option for Lunch box or 1 dish dinner.


Ingredients:
1 Cup Basamati rice
Grated Green Mango  1 Cup
2 red chillies
1/2 TSP Turmeric powder
1 TSP sugar
Salt to taste
1 TSP Urid dal
Couple of Twigs of Curry leaves
1/2 TSP of Mustard seeds and Cumin seeds
3-4 Green chillies finely chopped or to the taste
1/2 Tsp lemon juice ( Optional and depends on Sourness of the mango you use)
                                                           
Procedure:

1. Pressure cook rice with 1.5 Cup of water. Or, Cook it anyway you are comfortable with but the rice shouldn't be too soft or soggy, the grains should be well cooked and separate. 
2. Spread rice in a large plate or a Bowl.
3. Add the grated mango, salt,sugar. Mix everything together gently.
4. If the Mango is not enough sour you can add more grated mango. Taste the mango before you add it to the rice. You know yours and your family's taste very well,so  take a call on the basis of amount of Sourness you wish to have in the rice. If the mango is Sweet then don't just increase the amount of mango but add little lemon juice to the rice for sourness.
5. Keep 3 or 4 Tsp oil in a pan to heat. Once heated, add Urid daal to the oil. Once it turns out light brown, add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, chopped green chillies, curry leaves and at the end full red chillies.
6. Pour this mixture on the Rice. Again,mix gently but making sure whole Tadaka gets applied to the Rice properly.
7. Serve with your fav. side dish with this. Either go for a spicy pickle or some chili flavored crisps or anything you like.
