Mango and cashew nut sautéed rice is a speciality that Indians who migrated to Kenya in the last century brought to the coastal cuisine.
A habit favoured by the abundance of these two ingredients, combined with the great availability of basmati rice and pishori in these parts.
Here is our tasty recipe for a dish that can be accompanied by various sauces and condiments.
INGREDIENTS FOR 4 PEOPLE
Two cups basmati rice or pishori
Two not-too-ripe mangoes finely julienned
Half a cup of cashews
4 green chillies (pilipili)
Two tomatoes
Half an onion
Half a teaspoon of turmeric
Half a tablespoon of cumin seeds
Half a tablespoon of mustard seeds
Salt and pepper to taste
sunflower oil
PREPARATION
In a saucepan (wok is best) brown the onion with oil, add salt and pepper and then the cashews and whole chillies with the cumin and mustard seeds. Then add the finely chopped mango and turmeric and fry for two minutes, adding half a cup of water if necessary.
Finally add the tomatoes cut as for salad and turn off the heat.
Separately cook the basmati rice and when it is ready add it to the casserole and stir-fry.
If desired, sprinkle with parsley or coriander.
Serve lukewarm as a side dish or even as a main course with fish or meat.
