Today, I have an easy Mambazha Pulissery-Mambazha-Mango Kalan-Ripe Mango in a Yogurt Gravy -Mango curry Recipe as part of Sadya Recipe. Your jaw just dropped, didn’t it?
This Pulissery-Kalan/Kaalan is divine and really easy to make, I promise.
Mambazha Pulissery-Mambazha-Mango Kalan is a sweet and sour curry simmered in a yogurt coconut gravy tempered with few ingredients, which takes the taste of this curry a level higher.
Traditionally, Mambazha-Mango Pulissery-Kalan recipe is made using ripe nadan/nattu manga-mango, a special variety of mango having a unique smell and small in size with thick green skin, are super juicy and fibrous.
Ripe mangoes are cooked in its own juice, which makes the curry so special. I made with a regular sweet variety mango because, I couldn’t find nadan-nattu manga-mango here in Florida. If it’s available for you then use them, instead for a more delicious or you can use any sweet variety mangoes.
Mambazha Pulissery-Mambazha-Mango Kalan pairs well with steamed rice and stirs fry You could relish for a weekday meal or for a weekend brunch. If you who have not tasted mango curry, here it is for you to try.

Mambazha Pulissery-Mambazha Kalan-Kaalan Recipe -Sadya Recipe
Ingredients
- 4-6 (or) 2 small mangoes (or) 2 big sized Nattu Manga/Ripe Whole Mango or or Any sweet variety Mango peeled, chopped into pieces
- ½ tsp Turmeric Powder
- ¾ tsp Red Chilly Powder
- ¼ tsp Crushed Black Pepper
- ¼ tsp Roasted Fenugreek Seeds powder dry roast and powdered
- ½ tsp Ghee /Clarified Butter
- 1 Sprig Curry Leaves
- Salt to taste
To Grind :
- ½ cup Grated Coconut
- 4-5 pieces or if your using nadan-nattu manga use 1 small Ripe Mango
- 1½ Cup Thick Sour Yogurt /Curd stirred well
- ½ tsp Cumin Seeds
- 4-5 nos Green Chillies
To Temper
- 2 tsp Coconut Oil
- 1 tsp Mustard Seeds
- 2-3 Whole Dry Red Chilies
- 1 Sprig Curry Leaves
Instructions
- If using nadan/nattu manga(small sweet mango) peel the skin and use whole mango or if using other variety mangoes, then chop them into pieces. But if they are smaller in size, I prefer to add them as a whole.
- In thick bottomed vessel, add mangoes, turmeric powder, red chilly powder, crushed black pepper, curry leaves, salt to taste, along with little water and mix well. If your using nadan/nattu manga (sweet small mango) then don’t add water just squeeze the mangoes well with your hand. (Note : This will bring out the pulp and juice of the mangoes to cook the same)
- Bring to a boil and reduce the fire. Cook the mango mixture well in the pulp and be careful of not burning it. Stirring occasionally until the gravy is thickened to a pouring consistency. (Note : You have to decide about the consistency of the kalan-pulissery remember when once it cools down it thickens further therefore decide on the consistency).
- Meanwhile grind all the ingredients listed above ‘To Grind’ without adding water into a fine paste.
- Add ghee and combine well; now switch off the stove when the mango gravy gets thick and cooked well.
- Add the grounded coconut paste and mix well. (Note: You don’t have to boil this again. Just mix it well.) Let it cool.
- Adjust the salt and add sugar if needed (Note : If the mango is not that ripe then you can add sugar or just skip adding sugar)
- Dry roast the fenugreek seeds to a golden brown and grind to a fine powder and sprinkle the fenugreek powder and set it aside.
- In a frying pan, heat the oil and add the mustard seeds. When these start to splutter, add the rest of the seasoning ingredients and fry till the chilies turn dark brown.
- Pour the seasoning to the kalan-pulissery and cover the dish for 10-15 mins. Let the flavor set.
- Yummy Mambazha pulissery- Mambazha Kalan-Kaalan is ready.Serve with rice along with Kaya Mezhukkupuratti or with any other Spicy Side dish as you wish and enjoy!
Notes
- I will recommend you make this curry fresh with nadan-nattu Manga/South Indian Small little mangoes.If you cannot find the South Indian small Mangoes, you can use any any variety of ripe mangoes for the curry.
- For Kalan-Pulissery the curds/yogurt used must be sour, If you feel if yogurt is not sour enough then just leave in room temperature at least for couple of days.
- Do not cook the curry for longer after adding yogurt, as it might curdle. You can even use sour yogurt in the curry to get a nice sweet-sour taste.
- The color of the curry many vary, so do not worry. The color depends on the variety of mango you opt to make the curry.
- If you wish you can add any other oil, using coconut oil gives authentic & special flavor to the dish.
- The consistency of the curry should be semi-thick, nor too thick neither too watery. If it’s too thick, add in a little hot water to thin it out.
- If you have leftovers you can store it for about a day or two in the refrigerator. Make sure to store it properly in a sealed container and reheat until warm before serving.It will not last more than 2 days.
- You can follow the same recipe and prepare the pulissery using cucumber, pineapple, apple, elephant yam, green plantain, or colocassia, etc.

Hi’
I tried it again with both Alphanso and Kesar. My GOD . It was mind blowing. We had it with Puri.Jain Gujaratis think they know everything about what to do with a mango. They gasped in utter shock and started asking each other how come they did not know about this curry. I sat smiling
Hey Nisha, wish you the same! I was super lazy to cook anything scpeial for Onam even though it was our first one together 🙂 We had our share of Sadya at our friend’s place :)But we had it on real banana leaves (defrosted though ;-)I love devilled eggs as I am a huge fan of hard boiled eggs. And potato is another weakness of mine, so I am sure that would go down very well with me! 🙂
Thank you for trying it and letting me know. So glad that that it lived up to your expectations! Hope your husband liked it too. Please do try other recipes from here when you've time.
Cheers!
