This hearty bean salad features chickpeas, sweet mango, fresh veggies, and sweet roasted corn in a cumin lime toasted chili oil dressing. Mango chickpea salad is a perfect, one-bowl summer lunch! (gluten-free, soy-free, nut-free, oil-free option)
I wanted to make a quick salad that was hearty and not very salad-like. That means not too many leafy greens, because my niece doesn’t like to eat those, but she loves chickpeas. That worked out really well because we added some lime, cumin, and cayenne to give it that Indian chaat-style flavor profile.
This salad is perfect for making the most of ripe, summer mangos and fresh corn on the cob.
It turned out magnificent as is, and then we leveled it up by toasting some red pepper flakes in oil, creating a spiced oil that brought everything together. If you want to make it oil-free, just omit the oil and add the red pepper flakes directly, but the oil definitely adds a nice, smoky, spicy flavor to the salad.
There are three types of heat in this salad:
green chilies
cayenne
red pepper flakes.
You can adjust the heat by using milder green chilies and reducing the amount of cayenne and red pepper flakes to your preference.
Serve this mango chickpea salad with pita chips, Indian papri/crackers or toasted pita bread for dipping.

Summer is the time to rejoice delicious and juicy mangoes and jackfruit along with the other seasonal summer fruits.
Mango is a fruit loved by one and all and there will hardly be any haters for Mango. In the recent years , I am seeing a surge in restaurants hosting a Mango Meal special with a wide menu of 18 to 20 items made from ripe mango as well as raw mangoes .
Vegan Mango shake was on my mind ever since I made the Mango coconut Barfi in the microwave, and it became a super hit with my friends and family .
This year, I was determined to make and blog this vegan Mango shake before the season ends . As always, I have used the Aaapus variety but Badami or Imampasand variety also give a nice taste.
Store bought coconut milk can be used or home pressed fresh coconut milk. You can add sugar based on the sweetness from the mango . Most of the times, sugar isn't needed as the Alphonso or Badami mangoes are very sweet.
Adding a pinch of cardamom powder and saffron strands is my personal liking as it gives a nice refreshing taste to the mango shake .
Mango Kulfi: Stuffed Mango Icecream: Kulfi in a mango: Mango Icecream is basically rabri filled inside the mango. So, basically, the idea behind this unique version of kulfi is to have a different flavor in each bite. When you have the first bite of this ice cream, you feel the real taste of mango and when you take the second bite, you feel the fusion of kulfi and mango which will increase the level of taste.
Mango Icecream is one of the most common icecreams which our mothers used to make as the availability of this King of fruit is high during summers. There are a lot of variations in this icecream like some make it by adding cornflour, some make mango shake and then deep-freeze it to set but this kulfi in a mango version is a little different and much tastier as well.
I saw this type of Mango Icecream in the market in my hometown. A shopkeeper is cutting down pieces of mango, I curiously saw and strange that he had cut down the seed also and people are enjoying it. Then my mother told me the procedure. This incident happen when I was 10 years old. From that time I always want to make this. Now, during every Mango season, I prepared it about 5-6 times and narrates the story to my husband every time.
Let us discuss the recipe in detail: Firstly, Use full-fat milk then only it enhances the flavors of Rabri. While making Rabri, I add Bread Crumbs to have instant Rabri but you can skip it and follow the traditional method to make rabri.
Secondly, Use of flavors totally depends on you, whether you want to use cardamom powder, rose water, or kewra water. All three tastes are good. Along with flavors, these have a nice aroma as well.
Thirdly, Make sure to place the mango correctly in the freezer, it is better to put mango in a glass and then in a freezer. Also, once it sets properly, take it out 5-6 minutes before cutting.
Last but not least, this much icecream is sufficient for 2 persons. So, adjust the quantity as per the number of people. Some of the amazing mango desserts are listed below:
The sun-dried mango is a unique traditional preserve that is utilized as a pickle or as a component of curries and rasam. It is a summer tradition to make these maanga vattal. Try out this as my mother teaches me to make them.
One of the first things I ask for as soon as I drop my bags at Mum is for maanga vattal. This time was no different. With mango trees surrounding the house, these sundried mango pieces are a spicy quick treat that amma keeps with her hundred-odd varieties of pickles. When she said she had none in stock at this time I was a bit disappointed. I am sure she spotted it too. The next day there was a small basket of raw mangoes ready. So here we are capturing how the dried mango vattal is made. Win-win, I get the vattal and the learning of making it. Sharing the recipe here for you too to save and use when green mango is in season for you.
Ingredients for the maanga vattal
Raw mangoes- Sour green mangoes are specifically chosen to make sundried mangoes. the variety we have here is called “pulian” which is a local favourite for its extreme sourness. these are picked fresh from the tree using net baskets to prevent them from falling down and damaging. Salt – Amma will not agree if it is not crystalline salt. She disapproves of the refined table salt as it has no flavour!! I agree, the minerals make the flavour better. Chillies the chilli used in this recipe is for the pickle flavour. You can make salted pieces too. The heat is usually from dried and powdered Serrano peppers. If not use cayenne powder.
The step-by-step process for making dried mango
Prepping the mangoes
Once the mangoes are chosen break off the stem and wash off the stain that drains. Take care to protect your face as the stain causes burns. Slice off the flesh from either side of the mango seed. You can cut this into halves or quarters. The seed can be preserved as such or the side flesh can be cut away and dried. Seasoning the mango pieces since it is a preserved form of mango, salt is the main preservative. Along with this chilli powder is added to provide spiciness and feel like a pickle. Once the salt and chilli are rubbed on the pieces. Leave this in the mixing bowl for a couple of hours so that the water from the mango is extracted with the salt.
Drying stages
3 to 5 days in the hot tropical sun is what makes the maanga vattal so perfect. The brined and seasoned mango pieces are arranged on a plate or clean cloth under the sun in a single layer. Try doing this early morning to avoid the sun glare. This will start drying and within a day the edges will curl up. Flip it over and dry it the next day. The pieces will shrink and roll as drying continues. After couple more days in the sun test if the centre is dry. When warm from the sun, the pieces will snap this is the best test for the drying process completed.

Once completely dry, Store them in an air tight container.
Storing the mango pieces
Once dried the maanga vattal shrinks to very small pieces. These can easily be stored in an airtight bottle in your pantry for up to a year. If the weather is a bit humid, make sure you redry it in the hot sun say once in three months. To use remove the necessary pieces with a dry spoon and seal the bottle back again
How to use maanga vattal?
The dried raw mango pieces are a fantastic side to give a spicy sour bite to simple meals, kanjis or koozhu. If you soak the pieces in a tbsp or two of warm water they soften to form a pickle. Amma makes a fabulous vattalkozhambu curry with maanga vattal that we had blogged about a long while ago – Click here for the link. I use the manga vattal she gives to make a quick rasam by boiling the same with excess water, crushed garlic, rasam powder, a shallot, curry leaves etc and seasoning to adjust. This is a thin rasam that is more like a soup broth than one to have with rice.

This frozen yogurt bark with mango is the perfect refreshing snack. It’s so easy to whip up, healthy and packed with protein. You’ll want a batch in your freezer at all times.
This recipe is super simple to make – it’s the perfect recipe to involve your kids in.
Frozen Yogurt Bars Ingredients
plain yogurt – I personally like using full-fat yogurt for yogurt bars because it’s thicker and a bit more rich, but you can use regular plain yogurt... if that’s all you have and low-fat yogurt & for my vegans friends can use Greek yogurt.
Sugar or honey – I used sugar in it because my mangoes are not too sweet and if it’s not bough sweet you can use honey too. If you want to keep the recipe super low in sugar you can use plain yogurt without sweetening it, but I think it tastes really good with a little maple syrup.
Mango– you can use any fresh mango chunks you like, but I love the swirls in it, so I use purée for bars and purée to makes swirls inside the bars 😋😀 you can use any fruits of your choice.
Tutti frutti for garnish - you can use anything, it perfectly goes with dry fruits and great going with coconut flakes
One of my favorite recipes to use to cool off with are these frozen fruit bars. They are so simple to make, and they are better for you than most of the ice cream bars and other frozen treats that you will normally find at the store because they are made with fresh yogurt.
In my family, we all are big fan of ice cream, but as you all know, ice cream isn’t always the healthiest dessert option. That is why I decided to replicate some of the fresh ice cream bars into this.
You can use the same mango yogurt mixture into popsicles too, I made that way also but forget to click it.
