During Summer raw mango is abundantly available. We use raw mangoes in several recipes like raw mango pickle, chutney, dal, sabji, etc. but we do not bother to utilize raw mango peels in our cooking. Rather we take the fleshy part of the raw mango and discard the peels as kitchen waste.

But it is scientifically proven that peels of raw mango are loaded with several types of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. It is also a very good source of dietary fiber.

The taste and flavor of raw mango peels are undoubtedly very good. So, after knowing the mango peel benefits, it is our responsibility to utilize the goodness of raw mango peels.

Today, I like to introduce a new recipe using raw mango peels. It does not involve any cooking. It is a special type of green chutney, containing a substantial amount of raw mango peels. Believe me, this special green chutney is much healthier and tastier than the conventional green chutney.
