Fajeto (Mango Kadhi/Mango Rasam)

Recipe contributed by: Dhara Balwa

A lot of mango recipes will be coming from my kitchen with summer here. I have already tried a few mango recipes and tomorrow is mango ice cream's turn. But let me not get ahead of myself and talk about Fajeto. Fajeto is a Gujarati recipe which was created to get the most out of mango. That is after you get the pulp or the fruit, the seed of the mango with whatever pulp and juices are left on it is boiled with water and tempered with spices, kind of like rasam. Then it evolved in kadhi. Gujarati kadhi is sweet, tangy and spicy at the same time so may be some mango lover like me would have thought, "How about adding mango to it?" And let me tell you, it tastes amazing! Whoever thought of it needs a round of applause. And apart from the flavor, the color is appealing to the eyes too. My son pronounced his verdict today that Fajeto is his favorite among dals/kadhis. I am not surprised! Try this refreshing recipe that you can have as soup too.
