Mango pachadi/ Mango sauce

Its been a really longtime since I updated this blog. Okay its not I don't cook anymore, ofcourse I do , and its definitely not the time excuse either. With 24 hours in a day, I certainly can not do a blame game on that. Its just that I always forget to take a good picture of my recipe and I end up not updating my blog. But today I thought I will post something anyway even with one of my 'not-so-good' photos, something better than nothing anyday right?
