Mambazha Pulissery as the names denotes, is a mildly sweetened and tangy flavored traditional curry dish prepared from mangoes and curd. The curry dish is served as an accompaniment with rice for noon day meals. Also termed Manga Pulissery, this is a very delicious dish quite popular in Sadhya menu and feasts. The sweet and sour flavored mango curry dish is a lip smacking dish. Mangoes are in plenty during the summer season and you can get it very economical and cheap. The uniqueness of Manga Pulissery is that you are using partially ripe mangoes for the dish. Almost all houses in Kerala have mango trees in their backyard. Mangoes become ripe fast and to avoid wastage this is a novel method to consume them. The partially sweet and spicy flavored dish suits your palate well. Kids love the mildly sweet curry dish and this is a favorite dish with my family.
