Notes
Notes-
Try to choose sour firm raw mangoes.
The quantity of jaggary depends on the sourness of the raw mangoes and your taste preference . You may need 1/4 to 1/2 cup jaggary.
Addition of kashmiri chili powder gives a very beautiful red colour to the takku. But if it is not available then can use only the normal red chili powder,but add some turmeric powder in the tempering to enhance the colour.
You can also add some chopped green chilies in it .
