Maa Inji Urugai

Last Modified: March 19, 2016

I dont know how many of them know mango ginger. Its called maainji in tamil. And when i think of mango ginger, i can only remember the earthly aroma and the nice pungent flavour. Wonderful with curd rice or sambhar sadam. I eat it just like that. By the way, it is an aphrodisiac and also an antipyretic apart from the fact that it is an excellent appetiser. When i found it in the markets of baroda, i was on cloud 9. You see, i am addicted. My mom makes this instant pickle. Well, the original recipe is borrowed from a family cook who used to work at my grandparents’.
