In summers when Mangoes were in plenty and all could not be consumed by the family – our clever elders just sun dried them well so that they could be used when mangoes were out of season ! This is Ambe sat – sweet and sour in taste and healthy too ! If dried and stored properly – it will keep for 1-2 years ! Ambesatta tamballi is a very old amchi recipe !
Here I am sharing the recipe of my FB friend – Chitra Shenoy which she learnt from her own mother !
