15 Mango Recipes - Traditional Indian recipes for both raw and ripe mangoesGeeta Subramanium
Mangoes have been almost universally accepted as the most delectable and gratifying of all fruits. They are also unique, because they are among just a handful of fruits that are consumed both raw and ripe, like banana, jackfruit, papaya, etc.
I have presented some venerated, traditional Indian recipes for both raw and ripe mangoes. The recipes are pan Indian and do not belong to any one state. They are all easy to prepare, and with the exception of a couple of recipes, are not time - consuming. Do use good quality mangos to get the best results.
I hope you have as much fun as I did while preparing these recipes. The appreciation from friends and family who taste the dishes is always very encouraging.

Pumpkin cookbook Zero Waste
1. Zero Waste Halloween
Pumpkin Cookbook
let’s make sure the scaryiest thing about Halloween this year isn’t how
much plastic and food waste we’re producing. -
Created for Zero Waste Chester.
This cookbook has been developed as part of our campaign, with tried
and trusted recipes with the help of my colleagues at
Castlefield Partnership.
2. FRIENDS OF THE EARTH CHESTER & DISTRICT
PUMPKIN COOKBOOK
Pumpkin Rescue is part of Zero Food
Waste Britain, which outlines five
principles to tackling food waste and
has been developed by Hubbub.
Hubbub state that 18000 tonnes of
edible pumpkin ends up in the bin
each year.
That’s the same weight as 1500
double decker buses.
The Pumpkin Rescue uses everyone’s
favourite spooky staple as a prop to
talk about the edible food we throw
away and the easy steps we can take
to eat it instead.
The main thing we have been
asked is about those pumpkin sold
as carving pumpkins, these can still
be used for cooking but rarely are.
The flesh of the larger pumpkins will
have less flavour, so use
these for cooking dishes with more
spice e.g. soups, curry and cakes and
the smaller pumpkins for pies and
breads.
The guts can be used the make a
broth or mulled wine.
The seeds you can roast and use for
granola or save them to grow your
own next year.
Pumpkin Puree
You will see a few recipes created
from US sources where you can buy
purée pumpkin in tins.
To make puree at home, cut your
pumpkin flesh into cubes, boil for 20
mins or until soft, then blend. It will
keep in the fridge sealed for up to a
week, or freeze for a month.
Pumpkin Pie Spice
Another US staple you won’t find
here. This is how to make this spice.
You can make your own 1/2 teaspoon
of pumpkin pie spice by blending a
pinch each of ground ginger, ground
cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground
cloves, and ground allspice.

Lets start with a healthy option,
energy balls were all the rage
when I first started making these
and I still love them. For a vegan
option, replace the honey with
maple syrup and get vegan cho-
colate.
I used gluten free oats from our
local Zero Waste Shop in Chester,
Just Footprints.
Ingredients
1 cup oats or oat flour
1 cup raw almonds
1/4 cup pumpkin purée
3 tablespoons honey
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 pinch salt chocolate
melted chocolate to decorate
Method
Combine oats and almonds in a food
processor and pulse a few times so
almonds are chopped finely into small
pieces.
Add the rest of the ingredients until
well combined.
Add more pumpkin puree and honey if
the mixture looks dry.
Take 1 heaping tablespoon of mixture
and form them into a ball. Continue
with rest of the mix.
You can drizzle or dip some in melted
chocolate and let them air dry for 10-
15 minutes. Store them in the refrige-
rator to chill.

PUMPKIN COOKBOOK
This is the first recipe I made for
the book, trying it out on my work
colleagues. I didn’t get back from
the office until late, so I adapted
it to use a slow cooker by adding
extra stock.
Ingredients
3tbs olive oil/rapeseed oil
1 tsp mustard seeds
4 cloves of copped garlic
1 chopped onion
4cm cube fresh root ginger
1 fresh red chilli chopped
1 tsp turmeric

900g, chopped into 3cm chunks)
20 curry leaves
2 x 400g tins of chickpeas
400g tin chopped tomatoes
400g coconut milk
Method
- Warm the oil and add the mustard
seeds until they pop, then add the cho-
pped garlic and the onions and saute
until brown.
- Reduce the heat, add the chilli, ginger
and turmeric and stir through the onion
mix until everything is coated. (I also
added around 6 fresh tomatoes at this
stage and cooked these through with
the onions and spice)
- Add the chopped tomatoes, chic-
kpeas and pumpkin, bring to the boil
and reduce the heat.
- Add the coconut milk and simmer for
45 minutes. Check regularly and add
water if needed.
- After 45 minutes check the pumpkin,
remove the lid and simmer for a further
15 mins to thicken if needed.
- Serve with chopped coriander, rice
and naan bread.

This one’s from Roisin at work,
it’s a new recipe for me. Laksa is

500g squash or pumpkin(cut into
2-cm cubes)
500ml vegetable stock
2 heaped tbsp crunchy peanut butter
2 tsp ground turmeric
2 tbsp soy sauce
25g finely chopped fresh ginger
250ml full fat coconut milk
1 lime
Season with chilli flakes and pepper.
Method
- Put everything except the lime and
coconut milk into a medium saucepan
and bring to the boil.
- Reduce to a simmer and cook for 20-
25 minutes until the squash is tender
and the pot looks vibrant.
- Remove from the heat and pour the
contents in a blender and blitz down
into a smooth liquid.
- Pour back into the saucepan and add
the coconut milk and squeeze in the jui-
ce of the lime.
- Bring to the boil and then serve imme-
diately. It goes well with rice noodles.
