I saw this Ammachi on YouTube making Mango Chammandi on the grinding stone and I couldn't help salivating.
To our bad luck, the mango tree outside our bedroom window did not yield any mangoes this year (except for two mangoes)
It could be due to the unseasonal rains. Talk about wrong timing, that went hand in hand with the lockdown.
To pluck the mango, I borrowed an idea from a DIY video I saw on FB about the different uses of plastic bottles.
We did the grinding in a mixer as Ammachi's grinding stone was something that is not seen in many households now a days.
For my part, I did the grating of the coconut (apart from plucking the mango)
The final product looks yummy and we are waiting for lunch time to feast on the chammandi.
The second mango is earmarked for next week.

Looks nice!
Looks amazing. Can we have the recipe for both the Swedish cake and mango chutney please. If you can believe it, my daughter has this grinding stone..... that was used in her wedding !! - Buvana Sharma
You had to use some ingenuity to get and grind the mango, but it looks as if it was well worth the effort. I hope you enjoy the second mango as well.
This looks delicious!!!

Heartbreak about the mangoes. It so sucks when the weather conspires to hurt the growing season.
I haven't seen a traditional coconut grater in a long long time. - Martina
I've never heard of this before. It looks just delicious!
Yes, it's the seasons of mangoes! So unfortunate that the tree didn't yield any but two.
That manga chammandi looks absolutely delicious!
How about sharing the recipe please.

Our harsh winter stunted the growth of my fruit plants too. I didn't get any cherries on my tree this year :( Glad you were still able to walk away with 2 mangoes though!
