Notes
- As sourness of mango varies , keep a check on masala paste before mixing with rice.
- Before adding the rice , remove ¼ -⅓ cup of prepared masala paste (mavinakayi gojju ) and set aside. After mixing rice with remaining masala , check the taste and add the masala paste accordingly.
- Note salt is added while cooking Masala paste as well as while mixing with rice at final step.
- Also if you are serving it later , then do check the salt and tang in rice as it will absorb the flavours and may tend to taste mild. So it's necessary to check before serving and adjust salt and masala paste as needed.
