Our mango story in Covid 19 Lockdown

Mango season coming to an end. Now a days we are getting one or two mangoes fallen from our mango tree. Anyway it comes to a count of 4.
This season we had four harvest, all in the lockdown period. We have our neighbors to distribute. Everything went well including my cooking experiments. Rather than the traditional pachadi, pulissery, palkari, meen manga curry, chutney, pickles both raw and dried did almost all and some new dishes, manga sadam, aamras poori, mango sweet and spicy salad, mango sweet curry and mango payasam. Today with the four mangoes made the so simple and delicious mango shake.
Mango is the King of fruits. It improves digestive health, lowers blood sugar and cholesterol, anti cancerous, good for skin and eyes. It enhances immunity. If the mango is home grown the quality is double. This mango season in the lockdown period we enjoyed the mango to its maximum with caring and sharing.
Back to the day, peeled the mangoes. Cut and chopped. Kept half handful chops to top the shake. In a blender put the rest of the mango chops, two tablespoon sugar. Blend it smoothly. Transferred into two glasses, add chilled milk, upto 3/4th of the glass, topped with rest of the chopped mango pieces and finally added the ice cubes.
A nice fruit shake around 12 noon is good to cut down the carbs in your lunch.The you won’t be so hungry to have a heavy meal. Instead of fruit shake can have a plateful of fresh veggies as salad. You shall be amazed in the weight loss. A great way to loose weight.
