“Ghotache sasav” or Ripe mango curry is made using thick coconut gravy which is tempered using mustard seeds .Normally we use small baby mangoes but normal mangoes can also be used.

“Ghotan ” is a Goan term used for special type of mangoes we get here in goa. These mangoes are grown on ungrafted mango trees. We normally don’t cut then and eat, instead we just suck the pulp. “Sasav” is Konkani term for mustard seeds.

If these mangoes are very sweet, we don’t use jaggery in the gravy otherwise we add some jaggery as per our taste. My mom got these super sweet Ghotan from market , so I avoided using jaggery .
