Mambazha pachadi ia a seasonal and traditional recipe prepared during tamil varusha porappu /Chithirai kani and Vishu kani. This pachadi can be made with or without tamarind. I learnt this recipe from my paati. In my home, we mix it with hot rice and have it with papad. It tastes yum and is a popular one in my home. This can also be used as a side dish for molagootal which is another super hit recipe from Kerala Iyer’s kitchen.There is another popular recipe called mangai pachadi which is made with unripened mangoes. But here we use ripened mangoes to make this pachadi.

Wow. That senthooram mango looks so good. Now I miss mangoes. Mambila pachadi looks scrumptious. My mom also makes it during the season. We used to fight for it in the end. After seeing your recipe. I am urged to give a try. Bookmarking your recipe. Will make it when I get my hands on to mangoes.
Thank you Malini.
Mambazha pachadi looks so delicious. It is ideal to serve with hot steamed rice, will make it next year.
Thank you Jayashree.
Niranjana this mambazha pachadi looks super delicious. It reminds me of the mango shaak or curry we make Gujarati style, nearly the same method but we don’t add coconut and curry leaves. And we use semi ripe mangoes. Tempting me to try your version.
Thank you aunty. I would like to check your recipe. Yes, this is Kerala style pachadi where we add coconut. In Tamilnadu style pachadi we donot add coconut and it is similar to Aam ki launji. In Tamilnadu style, we use semi ripe mangoes.
Interesting info Niranjana, so many variations of mango curries. Thanks. Do you have the Aam ki Laungi recipe on your blog?
No ji, I have not posted yet.
I love mango pachadi, I used to make it every season. This recipe is totally different from mine. Yours Mambila pachadi looks super scrumptious. Will try your recipe next season.
Thank you Jolly. Would love to know your version. This is Kerala style with coconut. In Tamilnadu we will make without coconut, which is similar to Aam Launji.
I love mango Pachadi.Your recipe sounds Delish and flavorful.Missing the mango season now.i make it when market is flodded with ripe mangoes.
Thank you & nice to know that Preethi.
