Tree full of violet mangoes, made me wants to make so many yummy Mango Treats! | Traditional Me

It was a quite a sight to see Elder Aunty’s Vilad mango tree was laden with beautiful violet colored Vilad mangoes. Even when Vilad mangoes are raw, still their skin looks pinkish red and gives a picture of a violet themed carnival bulbs lit all over the tree! Decided to pick few raw mangoes and bring them home to keep them to ripe! When washed and kept them in a dark area the mangoes ripes fast! There is a unique beauty in ripe Vilad mangoes and since the skin is a mixture of red and yellow shaded truly gives a picture of burning flames! Brother went early in the morning to our village bakery uncle’s house and bought two loaves of bread for breakfast. Since we were kids the uncle who owns the village bakery was affectionately called as “ bakkare mama”(bakery uncle). People calls his house as the bakery house as well! Since the bread was bought right from the morning batch of bread, they were fresh and hot. To eat with the bread, I made a reduced prawn and raw mango curry. V
