Why I love this?
Usually mango pachadi recipe either has no coconut or grated coconut will be added at the end. But my MIL adds smoothly ground coconut and that makes it special to blend well the salty, sweet, tangy tastes together.
It looks perfect as well as tastes perfect! In fact, I love the process we make this pachadi.
My MIL follows specific steps for an eye appealing results as listed below which I too follow:
Firstly, slice the mangoes beautifully to look similar as well as cook evenly.
Secondly boil it with turmeric for lovely color and add green chilli, salt for balancing the taste.
Thirdly uses pale color jaggery or sugar/ sugar candy mixture of both for lovely hue of yellow of mango pachadi.
Last but not least add ground coconut for hom*ogenous texture and brighter colour of mangai pachadi.

6 Tastes
If you are making for Tamil new year, just garnish(or temper) with dark roasted neem flowers (use ghee for extra flavour) . So that on the new year's day, you taste all the six tastes and treat all the emotions throughoutthe year equally
- Sweet (இனிப்பு) - from jaggery,
- Salt(உவர்ப்பு/ உப்பு) - from salt,
- Spice (காரம்/ கார்ப்பு) - green chilli,
- Sour(புளிப்பு) - Mango,
- Bitter (கசப்பு) - neem flower and
- Astringency(துவர்ப்பு) - mango/ Turmeric in one recipe.

Serving suggestions
Serve mango pachadi as part of south Indian Lunch menu. For instance, it is served in full meals in banana leaf, like in marriages or functions or in festive menu.
It tastes like a jam, so some people like it with chapathi, poori, adai etc.
Mango pachadi method:
- Firstly boil jaggery with very little water (just to immerse the jaggery) until it dissolves. Set aside.

Cook mango
- Firstly boil the sliced mangoes with water enough to immerse it.
- Once it boils, just drain the water completely. This step is to eliminate too much tanginess so that the taste is balanced. If you want to skip this step, you can skip too.

- After that, continue cooking by adding salt, turmeric, as slit green chilli and ¼ cup water.
- Cook the mango until soft. That is, you will see the mango changing from opaque to translucent.
Top tip: Once mango is cooked, it gets stuck to bottom and gets burnt easily, so keep stirring.

Notes
- The whole cooking has to be done in medium flame, frequent stirring to avoid burning.
- If you don't have jaggery you can add sugar, my mil adds sugar mostly which gives a great colour too.
- My jaggery was very old so it was dark in colour too,so the colour of the pachadi varies with the jaggery/sugar we are using.
