👩‍🍳 How to make Pulissery with Ripe Mango

  1. Prepare mango (5 mins, no heat): Select ripe mango (soft when pressed at stem), peel, cube into 1.5cm pieces. Measure 400g. Visual: cubes should be soft, slightly translucent.
  2. Prepare coconut paste (2 mins, no heat): Grind coconut, cumin seeds, green chilies with 50ml water to smooth paste. Visual: creamy, no grit visible.
  3. Mix yogurt (1 min, no heat): Whisk yogurt with 100ml water, turmeric, salt until smooth. Visual: consistency like buttermilk.
  4. Combine ingredients (5 mins, low heat 130°C): Add coconut paste to 150ml water in heavy-bottomed pan, stir well. Add mango cubes, heat gently. Do NOT cook, just warm through. Visual: mango will soften slightly.
  5. Add yogurt (3 mins, low heat 120°C): Slowly pour yogurt mixture while stirring constantly. Heat very gently, do NOT boil. Visual: sauce becomes creamy pale yellow, mango pieces suspended throughout.
  6. Temper (1 min, high heat 180°C): Heat coconut oil, add mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds. Crackle well. Add curry leaves, shallots, fry 10 seconds. Visual: seeds pop, shallots turn crispy.
  7. Finish (1 min, no heat): Pour entire tempering over pulissery, stir gently. Visual: creamy mango sauce with golden oil droplets.
