Mango!!!!!!! King of fruits. In India, mango season starts from April ends in August. During this season not even a single day we missed eating mango or its by-product. We can make jam , sikarne, mango lassi, mango shake. with ripen mangoes and with raw mango we can make pickle, mango rice / chitranna, panaka/juice, chutney, palya/curry and so on.
