ಮಾವಿನಕಾಯಿ ಹಸಿ ಕೆಂಪು ಮೆಣಸಿನಕಾಯಿ ಚಿತ್ರಾನ್ನ |

I prepared this delicious mavinakayi chitranna during the recent Ugadi festival. I tried the recipe for the first time with a little hesitation (as it was a festival day!!), but the result was irresistible-it was truly that delicious

Now moving forward, I’m going to try this same recipe again, but by replacing fresh picador red chilli with fresh picador green chilli, very soon. And I’m sure of a great result this time too

However, I highly recommend you try this delicious raw mango fresh red chilli spicy rice or Mavinakayi Hasi Kempu Menasinakayi Chitranna and let me have your valuable feedback-which will make my day and inspire me to try more and more such recipes
