Mangoes, Mangoes Everywhere!!! My hubby is a Mango Maniac. My FIL, BIL and everybody in his family go crazy this summer and they used to mangoes like anything. Every week when i call my FIL and MIL they used to say aboutt varieties that have arrived and gone till date. So sad we dont get all those varieties here in Dubai. So, hatever was availabe he has got about 5-10 mangoes and all are lying in my rice pot!!! So, Every morning i open the rice pot, this nice aroma of ripening mangoes spread all over my kitchen. Thought of making something Delicious with mangoes. So made this morekuzambhu for the weekend. It was yummy and not to say about my hubby's brightened face!!!!
