Raw Mango Sweet Sambar with Toor Dal Recipe

I love Raw Mango. Even though you get raw mango almost all year along these days the ones you get it during season (summer) is really amazing.. Esp I love the variety we get from my grand ma little garden. I was told that tree is there for past 60 over years (yes … the fruit is tasted thro’ 5 generations) My grandma used to make a sweet mango sambar which I like esp the mango after a day. I can finish 1 to 2 mangoes at one go. This is one of sweet dish I like from my childhood. I have posted Raw mango sambar in my space before. This recipe is almost same except addition of Jaggery. Another similar recipe is raw mango Pachadi but it is done without dal
